Girls Incorporated of Santa Fe
Our Mission is "Inspiring all girls to be strong, smart, and bold" and "Inspirar a las niñas y a las jóvenes a ser seguras, inteligentes, y decididas."
Our Vision is "Empowered girls in an equitable society."
We serve girls ages 5 – 18 at our two Centers located on Hillside Avenue in Downtown Santa Fe and at Zona Del Sol in the Tierra Contenta subdivision. We provide research-based programming in safe, affordable and dependable out-of-school-time care, both after school and during school breaks, as well as several outreach programs.
Our Goal is to expand and deepen our quality of service while extending our reach to more girls. We know that what we do works for girls, therefore our goal is to increase our services to serve 10% (approximately 800) of Santa Fe girls by 2012.
