Boys and Girls Clubs of Georgia

Healthmpowers and Boys and Girls Clubs of Georgia worked together with different organizations across the state to implement the Girls empowering movement program (gem). The main objective of this program is to improve middle school Girls' physical activity and fitness levels. The program directly addresses the challenge of providing Girls with access and opportunities for regular physical activity while empowering them to become change-agents in their schools and communities. Gem provides leadership training to approximately 7,000 Girls at 120 selected sites, spanning 51 Georgia counties. Girls will gain skills in leadership, fitness, advocacy, and social-emotional learning - and lead the creation of physical activity programming specific to each site based on their own preferences, motivators, and goals. As gem ambassadors, Girls will develop new physical activity programs and leadership opportunities for their peers - reaching a total of approximately 18,000 Girls across the state.
