Educating Everyone On Trends, Programs, & Statistics
The All About Girls of Color Initiative (AAGOC) unites individuals passionate about youth equity and inclusion to reduce the exclusionary practices and marginalization of girls of color by providing training on current trends impacting them and evidence-based practices for supporting and engaging girls of color around these trends.
