Girls Incorporated® at the YWCA Madison Girls Inc.® at the YWCA Madison (formerly Girl Neighborhood Power) is an after-school enrichment program designed specifically for girls ages 9-18.

Major programs address math and science education, pregnancy and drug abuse prevention, media literacy, economic literacy, adolescent health, violence prevention, leadership development and sports participation.
