Girls Leadership Collaborative is a leadership development organization that empowers girls, equips educators, and supports parents as they guide their daughters to become agents of change in their communities. Using a variety of formats, Girls Leadership Collaborative programs delve into group formation theory to better understand adolescent behaviors and motivations. Our researched-based, individualized curriculum explores leadership behaviors and uncovers personal passions. Central to each of our programs are our service learning experiences, which are available to past or current program participants. We inform our work through Strength's Based Leadership practices. Research driven, yet accessible, engaging, and fun, GLC seeks to contribute to the social and emotional development of adolescent girls. Girls Leadership Collaborative (GLC) was developed to provide girls the experiences necessary to uncover their strengths, explore their interests, examine how and why they interact with others in group settings, and create purpose while working to positively impact their communities, a cause, or the world. GLC provides the necessary practice engaging in safe and developmentally appropriate risk taking as participants develop as leaders; girls who can and do take initiative.Unique to our programming is the focus on, and application of content ranging from neurobiology & brain research, to application of Gallup's Strengths-finder tool and Mindfulness training, all made accessible through our developmentally supportive facilitation techniques using our unique GLC curriculum. Developing service learning projects as an outcome provides a meaningful context in which to examine and apply our human experiences in group while working toward a greater purpose. Central to GLC is the question: How can what it is I know, and am able to do, benefit a community, a cause, or the world?
