Girls Inc. Sporting Chance ®

Builds movement and athletic skills, cooperative and competitive spirit, health awareness, and interest in all sports as girls explore career opportunities related to sports and experience the benefits of healthy risk taking. The program lays a foundation for a lifetime of sports participation through two age-appropriate programs: SteppingstonesSM and BridgesSM.

Girls Inc. Friendly PEERsuasion ®

Girls build skills for resisting pressure to use harmful substances such as alcohol, tobacco, household chemicals and other drugs. The two-part substance abuse prevention program teaches girls ages 11 - 14 healthy ways to manage stress and confront peer, media and other pressures. The girls then assume roles as PEERsuaders for younger girls.

Girls Inc. Project BOLD ®

Strengthens girls’ abilities to lead safer lives. Girls will learn strategies for self-defense (including physical techniques), for seeking out and talking with caring adults about personal violence, and for advocating on violence issues for girls and young women. Age-appropriate components include Kid-Ability!TM (Kid Jr.), Action for SafetySM and Taking Action.

Girls Inc. Media Literacy ®

We encourage girls to think critically about the messages media portrays as we foster their awareness of the scope and power of the media and its effects on girls and women. Girls gain media literacy skills that enhance their ability to critically examine and advocate for change in entertainment, news and advertising media.
