The Girls Chat Conference 2023 was for young girls in middle and high school. The Girls Chat Conference was designed to help young girls identify, understand, and flex their leadership muscles within their respective spaces and beyond. The conference focused on building the attendees’ self-awareness, social skills, and academic success. The conference created a culture that is focused on proactively counteracting race inequities by providing workshops. Empowerment is the key to impacting social change and building leadership. The Girls Chat Conference planted a seed of confidence within the young female participants to be or become a leader, thinker, advocate…a champion for self and other girls. This year, we focused on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) programming, as well as welcome presenters from the Cox Science Center.

The attendees had an opportunity to hear from and/or meet inspiring female community leaders and speakers in a wide range of career fields. The girls received 4 Community Service Hours for attending.
