Girls RAP is an empowerment program that support girls ages 12-18 with navigating girlhood and building healthy relationships. Programming is offered within five partner schools and on-site at YWCA Downtown. The school-based Girls RAP programming include twice-weekly group sessions and academic-related support. They are held during the school day preferably during non-instructional times. The schedule is determined with the support of the school leadership.
YWCA site-based Girls RAP program include once-weekly group sessions, meals and transportation provided and individualized case management. Youth are assigned a case manager that support them in framing and achieving their personal goals. Once a youth completes school-based or YWCA site-based Girls RAP programming, they are enrolled in aftercare support for one year. They are invited to YWCA Minneapolis to engage with program staff and enrichment opportunities.
