To support girls as they design their futures for successful womanhood.
Global Girls mission is to equip girls of color with skills that nurture their individual growth and inspire them to use their talents for positive change in their communities and throughout the world. We provide a safe space where participants learn performance, communication and social/emotional skills. Our curriculum is grounded in positive youth development best practices stemming from research in child and adolescent development. The overwhelming consensus is that youth need the following key assets to thrive and become healthy productive adults: 1. Safe environment 2. Supportive environment 3. Interaction 4. Engagement 5. Youth-centered policies and practices 6. High expectations The lessons helps youth develop critical thinking skills as they investigate their issues and seek solutions. Each program participant acquires dance, acting and story crafting skills while also reinforcing essential habits such as resiliency, empathy, self-discipline and grit. The result is socially conscious, youth-driven theatre that gives voice to participant's issues and concerns.
Our mission is to raise girls’ aspirations by connecting them with women role models. We introduce girls to the full variety of careers and options in life, inspiring them to aim high. Our work is part of Inspiring Girls International, which was founded in the UK in 2016 by Miriam González Durántez. Since then, the community has grown to include a total of 36 country teams across six continents. The USA team launched its first programming in November of 2020 and received its own legal standing and official 501(c)3 status in July of 2021.
