The Essence of Girls Group

Middle School to High School to College & Careers

Programming spans middle school, high school, and continues through college and careers.

Participants are mentored by experienced staff and interns.

School-Year Program, Summer Program, Year-Round Enrichment, College & Career Prep, College & Early Career, Alumni Services

Year-round comprehensive programming focuses on academic readiness, social/emotional life skills, financial education, and community service.

Girls Group exists because we want every young woman to be empowered to write her greatest story. Being empowered to write your greatest story means overcoming the barriers put before you by peers, family, schools, community, and society.

It means owning your power, finding your voice, and recognizing that not only can you dream bigger than you‘ve ever imagined, but you have what it takes to reach those dreams.
