Girls Inc of Greater Houston

Since we are an outreach based group, we travel to sites that request our services. The setting can vary depending on the site we travel to.

We have been in Houston since 1996. We are one of 97 affiliates of Girls Inc in the US and Canada.

We offer programs for girls in a wide variety of topics including engineering, economic literacy, media literacy, sports, healthy living, preventing adolescent pregnancy, body basics, resisting peer pressure, and internet safety

 Girls Incorporated understands the complexity of girls' lives and is dedicated to advancing the basic human rights of girls—the right to be respected, self-reliant, healthy, safe, and challenged. Our goal is to ensure that our Girls' Bill of Rights becomes a reality for all girls.
