The YWCA Cambridge Girls Council is a group of energetic and passionate Cambridge girls and young women, ages 12-18, who meet monthly to discuss issues that affect our lives. There are friends, fun and there is always food!

The goals of the council are to develop, foster and promote the leadership of girls and young women in Cambridge by becoming active leaders in our community. The council participates in special events, community education, and advocacy, and guides the development of girl's programs offered by YWCA Cambridge.

The Girl's Council is a great place to make new friends and have a say in the things that matter to us.
