It is our vision for all girls in Alameda County to be prepared to achieve their dreams of college, career, and leadership. Learn more about our efforts this summer when College Access Now girls participated in four college tours and Eureka! girls attended university-level classes and immersed themselves in a college environment.

Too many girls in Alameda County grow up facing gender limitations, racial assumptions, and restricted opportunity due to economic status. Despite the rising prosperity and promise of the San Francisco Bay Area, these barriers make it harder for girls to uncover their strengths and realize their potential.
Girls Inc. of Alameda County’s model creates opportunities for success. We equip girls to defy limitations and stereotypes, attend college, break the cycle of poverty, and move into a thriving future. Our research-based programming supports girls at every stage of their development. We focus on the whole girl: her health and well-being, education, and development as a leader.
We support over 1,200 children and families annually.
Our girls are 1.5x more likely to read at or above grade level than their peers.
100% of Girls Inc. seniors enroll in college and 89% are the first in their families to do so.
