Programs
Dare To Be A Girl was launched in 2016, an organization created to empower young girls from ages 8-18 years old in Palm Beach County. The Dare To Be A Girl experience encourages girls to dare greatly and empower each other through group discussions of unique challenges that girls face. The experience includes improving self-esteem, sisterhood of support, and empower each other to succeed.
The mission of Dare To Be A Girl is to provide gender-specific preventative programs in a comprehensive, holistic manner to young girls that empowers them to develop their sense of self and confidence in leadership. Our goal is to transform young girls into women that make daring contributions towards society advancement and gender inequality.
