An engaging curriculum also creates a dynamic and inclusive learning environment where participants can raise their voices and share their stories.

Have you ever heard of the Girl Wheel?

We invented it and are happy to explain it! (Hint: It is rolled into our Heart & Sole program for middle-schoolers.)

In short, the Girl Wheel represents the balance between the five key parts of a person: brain, heart, social, body and spirit.

At practice, the Girl Wheel helps participants get to know themselves and one another, become a team, recognize emotions, and deepen empathy skills!

Honoring Freedom Day!

It was not until this day in 1865 - 2.5 years after the Emancipation Proclamation - that emancipation reached far western confederate states so that all enslaved people would be free.

The historical legacy of Juneteenth shows the value of never giving up hope in uncertain times." Smithsonian Institution

Yep, just $7 is all it takes to enter the park for the GOTRLA 5K. For some families, $7 is cost-prohibitive and we want to help! We're fundraising to help low-income families attend the 5K and watch their daughters cross the finish line.

THIS is where confidence happens. If you can spare $7 today, you can change a girl's life for the future.
