Why
“We want to make sure girls aren’t intimidated from exercising their right, and the best way to do that is, from a young age, make sure they see themselves as voters, potential leaders, and as civically engaged members of their communities.”
—Girls Inc. Director of Public Policy, Lara Kaufmann
When

Girls Inc. of the Valley is part of a 150-year-old organization that always puts girls first, inspiring them as they grow into strong, smart, and bold women.
What
Every year on October 11, International Day of the Girl, UNICEF and partners—especially today’s generation of girls—launch a year-long advocacy campaign.
Valley teens will learn and share with their families the voting process, and be ready to become “a generation of activists accelerating social change.”
