Join our Bronzeville/Hyde Park Chapter
for fun, empowering, girl-centric mentoring programs and activities
beginning October 18, 2014!

Girls ages 7 - 18 will enjoy a safe and empowering space
where they'll learn the right tools to chart their own course toward success
while forging friendships with other young ladies who are walking confidently in the same direction.
 


Why Choose Girls Rule? 
Girls Rule! Provides Girls With The Right Tools To Become The Architects Of Their Own Futures.
Girls are inundated with a variety of subtle (and not so subtle) societal messsages about their value and potential.  Therefore, each fun, engaging and esteem building Girls Rule! program teaches girls to identify and overcome these messages while helping them to define for themselves the type of women they'd like to become. Professional mentors inspire girls to blend...OUT while teaching valuable life/social skills and goal setting strategies that cultivate the self-confidence, consistency and courage it takes to make healthy choices. Register below to join us Thursday's and Saturday's this Fall!
