The mission of GirlVentures is to empower adolescent girls to develop and express their strengths.
At GirlVentures, we are committed to helping girls sustain the clarity, voice and self-confidence that they risk losing during the difficult transition to adolescence. Our programs are designed to help each girl regain and sustain her "true self" by developing and expressing her strengths. We strive to:
- Provide opportunities for girls to express thoughts and feelings, to work and play with a community of other girls and women
- Facilitate a process for girls to learn about themselves through their relationships with others
- Encourage leadership and self-discovery through outdoor adventure and creative arts
- Help girls discover strength and talent through a range of verbal, physical and creative self-expression activities
Core to our success and unique to GirlVentures is our commitment to bringing together girls from diverse ethnic, cultural, and socio-economic backgrounds. The rich diversity of the participants on our courses provides a rare opportunity for adolescent girls to embrace what makes each of them unique and to learn about and appreciate the differences in others.
