About
Black Girl Leadership was established in the Spring of 2016 in response to the needs of black women and girls within the Dayton Community. The alarming number of female juvenile offenders in Montgomery County was on the rise while the number of mothers raising their children had been declining. This organization recognized that to change these growing needs within our community, black women must begin to create a network to support, influence, and empower black women and girls. This in turn will help them tap into their resilience, brilliance, and utilize their unique gifts. We plan to cultivate within them the insight to realize they are jewels to be celebrated. We seek to reclaim our families and breakdown the oppressive structures and stereotypes that currently exist within the daily lives of black women and girls.
