At Boys & Girls Clubs, We Make a Difference Empowering Girls to Reach for More and Achieve

We’ve been refining the programs at Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Denver since 1961. At the core of our programs for girls, we focus on helping them develop the social and emotional learning that will be the foundation for their success – academically, emotionally and in their relationships. We encourage and mentor our girls and give them opportunities to practice leadership – in mixed gender settings that mirror the real world as well as in girls-only settings.

Girls-only opportunities include: • • •

Girls’ sports teams Girls’ hour in the Tech Lab Girls-only group sessions focused on leadership and character development
