Our Work
G.I.R.L. Mentoring is a team of incredible women from all walks of life who share a passion and desire to inspire girls. Our primary work is volunteering within the juvenile detention facilities, providing enrichment/youth development workshops and activities aimed to equip them with the necessary tools and resources to aid them in making healthier life choices. We seek to cultivate relationships with various organizations and individuals within the community who share a common mission and vision in helping our girls succeed.
Note: Due to confidentiality, juveniles in the detention center are not allowed to be photographed. Therefore, the girls will not appear in any of the photos posted from our workshops or activities.
