Girls Inc. Programming
We create welcoming, supportive, and nurturing environments where girls are encouraged to take healthy risks to learn from and grow.
In these spaces, girls ages 5–18 participate in age-appropriate, research-informed programming that helps them build the skills, knowledge, and confidence to lead in every area of their lives. Our programs are proven to drive positive outcomes, preparing girls to thrive in all aspects of their lives from physical and mental wellbeing to academic success to self-advocacy and independence.
Girls Inc. programming is focused on the three core pillars of Strong, Smart, and Bold.
Strong
Girls develop the foundation for lifelong health and well-being for physical and emotional wellness and decision making including but not limited to learning to care for their bodies and minds, build healthy relationships, set boundaries, and establish habits around fitness and nutrition.
Smart
Girls build the skills they need to succeed academically and beyond. Through reading literacy and hands-on exposure to science, technology, engineering, and math, girls expand their knowledge and interests. Alongside this, Girls Inc. provides dedicated college and career readiness support—equipping girls with the guidance, resources, and confidence to plan for and pursue their future pathways.
Bold
Girls grow into confident leaders and decision-makers. They learn to be self-sufficient and that their voice matters. They build essential life skills—such as financial, media and digital literacy, self-defense and self-advocacy, and leadership—while engaging in career exploration opportunities that spark their ambitions. With these skills girls strengthen their schools, communities, and workplaces, which benefits us all.
What Girls Learn
Girls build the knowledge, skills, and confidence to create positive change in their lives and their communities.
