Mission Statement:
We inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident
using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively
integrates running.
Vision:
We envision a world where every girl knows and activates
her limitless potential and is free to boldly pursue her
dreams.
Girls on the Run of Maricopa County is an organization that is
dedicated to the community prevention of risk behaviors of teenage
girls by providing life-changing educational/running programs to
pre-teen girls. We envision our organization being recognized as a
successful approach to reducing the high incidences of pregnancy,
obesity, eating disorders, depression, drug use and school drop
outs of teenage girls as well as being instrumental in fostering
the growth of healthy, confident women throughout the state of
Arizona. We aim to promote an environment that allows girls and
women to reach their full potential and aim to transform the way
girls and women perceive themselves and their place in society.
