Joy.
Power.
Possibility.

Since 1996, the Lower Eastside Girls Club has supported young women and gender-expansive youth of color throughout NYC in leveraging their inner power to shape a better future for themselves, their community, and the world.

In 2022, we expanded our mission with the Center for Wellbeing & Happiness, to provide free, full-spectrum wellness services for all generations and genders on the Lower East Side.

Together, we are building a just and equitable future filled with “Joy. Power. Possibility.”
