We, as an organization and movement, view this action as a first step to end the prejudice, poverty and lack of resources that leave Black girls and young women vulnerable at the margins of society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThrough GFAC programs, not only do girls create change by engaging in social change projects, but in the process, they learn problem-solving skills, as well as what it means to change policy and create movements. GFAC programs also focus on leadership skills, goal-planning, financial literacy, building a network, exposure, community engagement, skill-building, sisterhood building, and socio-emotional learning among other things. We also address various issues to include institutional racism, sexism, the digital divide, and the glass ceiling, which for many Black girls can be a concrete ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGFAC programs are designed to provide consistent support to girls, from their youth into their young adulthood, and beyond. We also provide outreach programs for middle and high school girls. Through experiential learning and consistent exposure, we focus on ensuring girls are ahead of the learning curve, breaking cycles and closing the opportunity gaps faced by too many disadvantaged, marginalized or underrepresented girls—specifically Black girls. We want to give every girl* who aspires to get ahead a chance to be seen, heard and celebrated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGet your own \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/girlsforachange.org\/\" title=\"GIRLS FOR A CHANGE WEBSITE\" target=\"_blank\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/girlsforachange.org\/\"\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGirls For A Change (GFAC)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\/#BLAIRISMS Collaboration T-shirt today and support GIRLS \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLEARN MORE ABOUT THE WORK \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/girlsforachange.org\/\" title=\"GIRLS FOR A CHANGE WEBSITE\" target=\"_blank\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/girlsforachange.org\/\"\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGirls For A Change (GFAC)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e IS DOING TO EMPOWER FUTURE GENERATIONS:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QnRzaagKZdA\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2020-12-07T23:55:04-05:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":false,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"GFAC"}],"published_scope":"global","image":{"created_at":"2020-12-07T23:55:03-05:00","alt":null,"width":1440,"height":2160,"src":"\/\/theblairisms.com\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/t-shirt-mockup-of-a-mom-and-daughter-walking-in-the-park-30603.png?v=1607403304"}}]
