GirlForward is a community of support dedicated to creating and enhancing opportunities for girls who have been displaced globally by conflict and persecution. We envision a future where all girls, regardless of their immigration status, have access to quality, culturally relevant, and meaningful youth development programs so they can thrive and achieve their dreams. GirlForward supports refugee, immigrant, and asylum seeker girls in grades 9-12 in Chicago, IL, and Austin, TX, through three core programs: Mentoring, Education, and Safe Spaces. Also fun fact, I (Christie) taught a few poetry workshops at Girl Forward!  🩵   We are Millstone (@christie.vbati & Noah Zanella), a micro-micro press that publishes Millstone, a bi-annual print literary & arts journal and hosts THE MILL!  _ Our performer submissions are currently open, please follow us @millstone.mag to find the submission form
