SAVE THE DATE! AFG’s State of the Girl Initiative | Join our Pláticas!
We're excited to announce the State of the Girl* Initiative (SGI), created in collaboration with girls and gender-expansive youth of color and the organizations that support them. This initiative is focused on developing a fully participatory and sustainable accountability model driven by what girls and gender-expansive youth of color say they need to thrive. We'll use recommendations from our youth-informed and youth participatory Lived Experiences of Girls Research Series conducted over the past 7 years to create the first-of-its-kind State of the Bay Area Girl County Profiles, measuring the conditions and well-being of girls and gender-expansive youth of color in each county based on their voices.
We invite our members and champions to our State of the Girl Initiative Pláticas.
The literal translation of pláticas is “talks;” however, pláticas are more than talks—they are family and community gatherings where powerful conversations occur in a warm, friendly environment.
Together, we can ensure girls and gender-expansive youth of color are positioned as solution builders and lean into their expertise to meet their needs. Watch out for a link to register soon!
