Girls Circle Group

The Girls Circle Program is a 6-week therapeutic program for culturally diverse adolescent girls using the “Girls Circle Model” created by One Circle Foundation. Girls Circle is the first gender-responsive program in the country to demonstrate effectiveness in reducing delinquency for girls. The Girls Circle model is a structured support group for youth who identify with female development from 9-18 years. The model integrates relational theory, resiliency practices, and skills training in a specific format designed to increase positive connection, personal and collective strengths, and competence in girls.
