Girls on the Run

Welcome to Girls on the Run - a positive youth development program for girls in the 3rd through 8th grade. Our mission is "to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running."   Our programs instill self-esteem and strong values through health education, life skills development, mentoring relationships, and physical training. Girls on the Run - Sierras (GOTR-S) is an Independent Council of Girls on the Run International, which has a network of over 191 locations across the United States and Canada.  GOTR-S is a 501c3 nonprofit organization incorporated in California and Nevada.
