Girl Be Heard is a New York-based organization that brings together social justice and theater making to empower young people aged 12-21. Through their unique listening model and ensemble-based programs, they provide a safe and empowering community for participants to develop as writers, performers, feminists, and activists. Their programs and curriculum, which include education programs, special projects, and the Artistic Company, aim to transform the lives of participating youth and create impactful performances that address social justice issues.
Girl Be Heard's mission is to build leaders, change-makers, and activists by amplifying and celebrating the voices of girls, young women, and gender-expansive youth through socially conscious theater-making, storytelling, and performance. Their performances, seen off-Broadway, at the White House, TED conferences, and the United Nations, not only showcase the talent and creativity of their participants but also raise awareness about global issues and promote cultural and educational exchange. By centering girls and young women as leaders in their communities and the world, Girl Be Heard is dedicated to creating a more equitable and inclusive society.
