Offers a positive youth development program which combines an interactive curriculum and running to inspire self-respect and healthy lifestyles in pre-teen girls. The core Girls on the Run curriculum addresses many aspects of girls' development like their physical, emotional, mental, and social well-being. Over a period of 10 weeks, girls participate in an after-school program. Designed to allow every girl to recognize her inner strength, the curriculum inspires girls to define their lives on their own terms. Throughout the season, the girls make new friends, build their inner confidence, and celebrate all that makes them unique.
