Help us end the self-esteem crisis in adolescent girls.

As the lead predictor of behavioral and emotional issues in our youth, low self-esteem sits at the forefront of the mental health epidemic in our region. Our team and thousands of volunteers are working tirelessly to put an end to this crisis.

Equipping participants with the skills necessary to combat societal pressures and recognize their inherent values.

But we can’t do this important work alone.

Girls who participate in BIO Girls increase self-esteem and decrease anxiety.

This is accomplished through three unique and proven facets of the BIO Girls program.

  • Challenge

    BIO Girls encourages girls to set a goal, hold themselves accountable, honor progress,  and experience success... set by their standards. The confidence gained from facing a challenge head on is a tool that they will carry on through their adolescence and beyond. 

  • Character

    BIO Girls is helping girls quiet their inner critic, by building their character. Lessons on empathy, kindness and respect help girls shift from a 'me' to a 'you' focus. Girls practice walking in each other's shoes, building each other up and living out the golden rule.

  • Connection

    BIO Girls is a judgment-free, kindness first, go-getter environment which enables girls to build friendships, become empathetic listeners and flourish as strong communicators. BIO Girls is equipping girls to create and foster healthy connections. And helping girls know, they are not alone.

“This program is a must for young girls living in today’s world. When my girls come home and talk about their lesson I often find myself thinking ‘I wish I knew that when I was their age.’ Each week they are so eager to learn something new. I love it when they share their experiences from the week and we continue the lesson at home. They love setting personal goals, working with their mentors and peers, and proving to themselves they are capable. The relationships they have made through this program are amazing.”
