DENVER, CO – Girls Inc. of Metro Denver is reaffirming its commitment to youth development by offering essential programs that focus on STEM education, leadership development, and mentorship. As one of the leading nonprofit organizations in the city, it is actively working to empower girls and non-binary youth to become “strong, smart, and bold.”
For years, Girls Inc. of Metro Denver has created a safe and supportive environment for participants ages 6 to 20, with a dedicated focus on serving BIPOC and low-income communities. The organization’s research-based approach helps youth navigate and overcome significant social, economic, and gender-based barriers.
“Our mission at Girls Inc. of Metro Denver is to ensure every girl values herself, takes healthy risks, and discovers her inherent strengths,” said a spokesperson for the organization. “When a young person feels supported and has access to new opportunities, their potential is limitless.”
A key priority for the organization is its investment in STEM programs. The “STEM Eureka!” program provides teens with hands-on experience in science, technology, engineering, and math—fields where women have historically been underrepresented. This initiative from Girls Inc. of Metro Denver aims to close that gap by sparking early interest and building lasting confidence.
Central to this success is a deep commitment to youth mentorship. Participants are paired with dedicated adult mentors who offer guidance and encouragement, a model that has proven instrumental in building confidence and leadership skills.
“The mentorship I received from Girls Inc. of Metro Denver was life-changing,” shared a recent program alumna. “Having a consistent, caring adult who believed in me made all the difference in how I saw my future.”
Girls Inc. of Metro Denver offers a wide range of age-appropriate programming, including after-school activities, summer camps, and career exploration internships. The organization relies on community support and invites individuals to get involved through volunteering, donations, or corporate partnerships to continue its transformative work.
