HOW DO GIRL ACTION TEAMS BENEFITS GIRLS?
GIRLS WILL GROW IN FOUR AREAS:
- Self-efficacy (belief in one's personal power to produce an effect)

- The ability and confidence to express and implement their ideas

89% of Girls said through Girls For A Change they learned how to take actions in their own communities.
“The greatest thing about coaching has been watching the girls’ self-esteem and confidence grow exponentially since starting the program. The girls have gone from shy and 'taking the world as it is' to outgoing and 'changing the world to what it needs to be'. They are willing to tackle problems and keep working toward improvement.” -Girl Action Team Coach, Silicon Valley
“I like how we have big discussions about what we’re going through and how we feel about different issues in life. It is the only place I ever do that.” -Miesha 16
