Girl’s Detention Advocacy Project supports incarcerated and previously incarcerated young women by helping them develop the skills and coping mechanisms they need to successfully re-enter the community.

Using community reintegration strategies that aim at ending generational cycles of incarceration, GDAP translates the incarceration of young women into opportunities to build community and to learn about civic engagement and social change.

They offer weekly educational workshops in San Francisco’s Juvenile Hall and weekly post-release support groups to young women and girls leaving the system.

Started in 1995

Who is helped?

Young women coming out of juvenile hall, young women who are pregnant and young women with children.

 Capacity: 30 girls every week.
