To empower girls and their families to succeed in order to protect, restore and preserve the family unit.
More Programs. More Togetherness.
More
Success.
The MORE Girl Power! does… The MORE our girls enjoy and embrace life.
Girl Power! takes the needs and desires of every girl serious so that
we can provide programs and activities that create healthy, smart, strong
and active girls. Using the "The Girls Report: What We Know & Need
to Know about Growing Up Female” (commissioned by National Council
for Research on Women) as a guide – along with input from parents, students,
and community leaders – the following Girl Power! programs were developed
to empower young girls to get MORE out of life.
