Girls Inc. is dedicated to assuring high-impact services for a growing number of girls and expanding our advocacy efforts by setting bold goals and a clear strategic direction in partnership with national leadership.
In partnership with Title 1 schools in Duval County, we focus on the development of the whole girl. She learns to value herself, take risks, and discover and develop her inherent strengths. The combination of long-lasting mentoring relationships, a pro-girl environment, and research-based programming equips girls to navigate gender, economic, and social barriers, and grow up healthy, educated and independent.
