Creating real change starts with strong voices, and at Girls Inc. of the Greater Capital Region, we are dedicated to making sure those voices are heard where it matters most. That’s why we are excited to announce a new partnership with one of our Council of Women for Girls mentors, Carrie Harring, and the team at Statewide Public Affairs—a collaboration that will strengthen our advocacy efforts and amplify the impact of our mission. See the official statement below.

“Girls Inc. of the Greater Capital Region is proud to announce a new partnership with Carrie Harring of Statewide Public Affairs to strengthen and advocate for the Girls Inc. mission at the highest levels of New York state government.

Through strategic advocacy and relationship-building, this collaboration aims to elevate Girls Inc.’s presence in the policymaking arena, ensuring policies reflect the needs of the girls it serves. Beyond legislative engagement, this initiative empowers Girls Inc. girls by involving them directly in the advocacy process—engaging in policy discussions, making their voices heard in the halls of government, and inspiring them to become future changemakers in their communities.

Carrie and the team at Statewide Public Affairs are honored to support these efforts, helping ensure that lawmakers recognize and champion the vital role Girls Inc. plays in shaping the next generation of Strong, Smart, and Bold leaders!”
