Girls to Women

We're the only girl-centered youth development org in the community!

Girls to Women provides quality after school and summer youth development programs to low-income, single-parent, and immigrant families in the East Palo Alto neighborhood. We emphasize academics, the arts, contact with nature, movement and fitness, and social development in a multicultural, non-denominational context for school-aged girls.
