About this organization
Mission
Girls Inc. of New York City inspires all girls to be strong, smart, and bold, delivering life transforming programs to girls, young women, and gender-expansive youth throughout New York City. Through education and advocacy, we prepare girls to navigate gender, economic, and social barriers to advance to a more equitable world.
About
Girls Inc. of NYC is an independent, 501(c)(3) nonprofit, operating separately from the Girls Inc. national office. Every day, Girls Inc. of NYC is on the ground, delivering services that reach 10,000 girls, young women, and gender-expansive youth at sites across the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan. We pursue our mission by providing gender-based educational programs in the areas of math; science; health and safety; financial literacy; and multicultural appreciation. Our commitment is to inspire all girls to be strong, smart and bold! We aim to accomplish our mission through the following goals: - Provide educational programs to underserved school-aged girls in areas where traditional curricula often fall short of encouraging girls to be their best; especially in math and science, economic literacy, and respecting and appreciating people of other cultures. - Encourage girls to attend college or obtain advanced technical training and develop skills that will afford them economic independence and future security, and to postpone childbearing until they are psychologically, economically, and physically prepared to care for children of their own. - Teach girls to identify and be discerning about both overt and subliminal negative images (ranging from a lack of leadership ability and the victim role to portraying women and girls as sex objects) that workplaces, media, and society often project on girls and women. - Help girls attain emotional and physical well being through programs that stress the importance of self confidence and inner strength; anger management and non-violent self-defense; and healthy nutritional and physical patterns of behavior. - Deliver programs directly or in partnerships with others (community based organizations, city agencies, schools and corporations) to reach as many girls as possible, to have a positive impact on their development.
