Inspiring Girls Circles
An Inspiring Girls Circle is a place for girls to meet with each other in meaningful ways and connect with incredible women role models to learn about the full variety of careers and options in life - and be inspired to aim high!
Where every girl is inspired to be anything she wants!
Did you know? 46% of girls think certain jobs are better for men than women. This won’t change unless we intervene early, showing girls what is actually possible.
Being part of an Inspiring Girls Circle offers a girl the opportunity she needs to see herself differently. Circles provide a warm, safe place to share thoughts, ask questions, and hear useful advice to prepare for the future - both professionally as well as personally. They help girls discover fields or jobs they might know less about and/or where women are underrepresented. As a girl gets excited about her options, being part of a Circle will show her how to explore them.
70% of girls say they think differently about their futures after hearing from our women role models.
What’s included?
Each Inspiring Girls Circle has access to all Inspiring Girls free activities and resources, including:
Lesson plans
Regular regional and national meetings
First access to special events & activities
Circle trainings and guides
Vetted role models
Who are they for?
Inspiring Girls Circles primarily serve 10-16 year old girls. Because research shows that this is the age where gender stereotypes really start to impact girls' choices and affect their future careers. However, we can decide with our youth partners to work with older and/or younger girls if it is appropriate for them. Please note, each Circle must be supervised by an approved adult (Circle Advisor) and our programming is not focused on girls in college. However, girls of this age can lead a Circle or offer support to another adult leading the Circle for younger girls. Read our information sheets and FAQs to learn more.
