Founded in 2003, RWF continues to transform the lives of inner-city teen girls in Detroit. Our core award-winning, comprehensive five-year Girls into Women program provides 8th -12th grade girls with weekly personal and career development workshops, tutoring, seminars and empowerment retreats. The RWF Academy after-school programming for 6th - 7th grade girls provides programming focused on personal development, career readiness and health and wellness.
We focus on making the maximum positive effort for our girls through consistent engagement and mentoring. Our board of directors, staff, mentors, and volunteers provide the momentum that helps us affect change. Using data driven models, we provide solutions that make a long-lasting difference.
Life changing events like our annual cross country college tour for our high school juniors provides our teens with a broader vision for their future.
