ABOUT
THE MOVEMENT
In 2018, Girls Inc. launched the #GirlsToo campaign motivated by the experiences of girls in our network. Our goal is to bring attention to the problem of sexual harassment and violence among youth, with actions aimed at shifting the norms and stereotypes that fuel these behaviors. Together we can create a safer, healthier culture for today’s youth and generations to come.


Recognize
the Problem


Recognize
the Problem
Girls today grow up in a society that does not always value, respect, or protect them. They experience sexual harassment and violence at school, work, and online. At the root of this problem are limiting messages and harmful gender stereotypes that youth receive at a very young age, which create an imbalance of power that follows them into adulthood.

THE CHANGE


MAKE
THE CHANGE
When we examine our attitudes and beliefs about gender and power, take seriously the experiences and concerns of young people, and speak up against sexual harassment and violence of any kind, then we will change the culture and create a society where all girls grow up safe, respected, and valued.
