Founded in 2012, Girls Like Me Project supports Black girls ages 11-17 in Chicago to critically examine social, cultural, and political ideologies in storytelling and media so that they will be able to overcome stigmas and negative stereotypes. They equip girls with the tools and strategies to become influential, independent digital storytellers who transform their communities and foster global sisterhood. As of April 2022, they serve 300 girls annually.
