Girls Group empowers young women to achieve self-sufficiency and begin their college or career journeys.
About us
Mission Girls Group empowers young women to achieve emotional and economic self-sufficiency by ensuring they graduate from high school and begin their college or career journeys. • Programming spans middle school, high school, and continues through college and careers • Participants are mentored by experienced staff and interns • Year-round comprehensive programming focuses on academic readiness, social/emotional life skills, financial education, and community service Vision The vision of Girls Group is to help economically disadvantaged young women achieve self-sufficiency. The ultimate ambition is that each young woman finds their voice, defines their goals and dreams, and moves forward in the world with pride and self-confidence. Values Empowerment: We take a strengths-based approach to work with all participants, staff, and interns. We believe that new skills can be learned and used. We have a social justice mindset, and believe in the dignity and worth of every human being. We believe that everyone involved with Girls Group leaves a legacy affecting future generations. Effective Environment: We believe that in order to achieve our mission, we must create a safe and supportive environment where our participants feel they belong. We believe in meeting our participants “where they are at.” We believe that every moment counts. We make learning together fun. Positive Relationships: We believe that the foundation for all we do is our ability to have compassionate, honest, and trustworthy relationships. We foster effective relationships between participants and mentors, peers, parents, schools, and communities.

Spring break camps and trips can cost hundreds of dollars, making them difficult to afford for low-income families. Because of this, every year, Girls Group offers a free, fun-packed Spring Break experience for participants to enjoy, learn, and grow! When asked about their favorite part of the program, participants shared, "I love the resources that we can have access to," and "I love Girls Group, I just got my headshot taken!" #GirlsGroupA2 #AnnArbor #Ypsilanti #Nonprofit #YouthEmpowerment #GirlsEmpowerment #JobReadiness

April is National Volunteer Month! The theme for the 2024 National Volunteer Week is Celebrate Service – an opportunity to shine a light on the people and causes that inspire us to serve. In celebration, participants are working on community service projects that inspire them this month. One Girls Group Participant shared, "Community service can be a way that we can reflect and be grateful for what we have." So, what are you grateful for or inspired by this month? #GirlsGroupA2 #AnnArbor #Ypsilanti #YouthNonprofit #NationalVolunteerMonth
