Advancing Equity for African-American Girls

The Collaborative for African American Girls and Women (CAAGW)

CAAGW is a consortium comprised of community-based organizations/projects that support African-American girls in the city of New Orleans.

CAAGW utilizes a collective impact framework to evaluate the impact of programming across the partnering organizations that serve African-American girls in the city of New Orleans. CAAGW leads small-scale research initiatives to examine the experiences of African American girls and young women that can be brought to scale to better support a landscape that advances equity for African-American girls and women.

CAAGW is comprised of the following organizations/projects: 

1.) Project Butterfly New Orleans (Dr. Rashida Govan), 2.) The Orchid Society (Ariel Wilson), 3.) The Beautiful Foundation (Tai Teamer), 4.) The Navigate Her Leadership Institute (Danielle Wright), 5.) Daughters Beyond Incarceration (Bree Anderson and Dominque Johnson).
