Girls Inc. Of Chicago

In partnership with Chicago Public Schools, Girls Inc. of Chicago provides after school programming that focuses on the development of the whole girl. The combination of long lasting mentoring relationships, a pro girl environment, and research-based programming equips girls to navigate gender, economic and social barriers to grow up healthy, educated and independent. Informed by girls and their families, we advocate for legislation and policies to increase opportunities for all girls. We encourage girls to believe in their fullest potential through the Girls Inc.
