Empower Your Black & Brown Girls, Transform Your School Community

Every school leader is working to improve attendance, strengthen school culture, and create an environment where their students can thrive. Yet many Black and Brown girls continue to struggle quietly with their self-esteem, confidence, friendships, and begin to disengage. Over time, these challenges show up in the outcomes schools are measured by including behavior, student engagement, and academic performance.

For over 16 years, 450+ schools and districts nationwide have trusted Pretty Brown Girl to help girls build the confidence, leadership, and sense of belonging they need to thrive. Through our culturally responsive SEL programs, we've empowered more than 100,000 girls while helping schools strengthen attendance, improve behavior, reduce discipline referrals, and support stronger academic outcomes.

Why Our Approach Works

At Pretty Brown Girl, we believe confidence, belonging, and leadership are foundational to student success.

When girls don't see themselves reflected in what they're learning, it becomes more difficult to build trust and connection. That's why our programs are intentionally designed to help girls feel seen, valued, and heard.

Ms. Graham, PBG Liaison at Farmington STEAM Academy
“PBG has always had a profound impact on the girls in every school I have taught in. However, this year has struck a new high. It has been wonderful seeing girls from 3rd to 8th grade believing in themselves, sharing positive experiences and emotions with one another, and growing in the ability to articulate words of affirmation to themselves and each other. I am SUPER proud of what has been accomplished this year in Pretty Brown Girl at FSA.”
Samaria O., 10th Grade Participant

“I have never been more confident in the person I became after being in Pretty Brown Girl. The conversations we would have allowed us to communicate our emotions healthily and in a safe space made just for me.”
