We inspire all girls to be joyful, healthy & confident!
About us
Girls on the Run Las Vegas empowers 3rd through 8th grade girls to find their strong and tackle big goals. We train volunteer coaches to use an evidence-based curriculum that uses running to teach the life skills girls need to pursue any big dream. Our seasons culminates in a celebratory, noncompetitive 5K, giving our participants a tangible sense of achievement while increasing self-confidence. We offer our program virtually and in-person (when it's safe), and creatively find ways to serve all girls, including those who can't afford the program. We offer step-down pricing and no girl is ever turned away for inability to pay registration fees. Our Celebratory 5Ks are traditionally held in December at Springs Preserve and in May at UNLV. Please note that we are unable to host our Spring 5K in 2021 due to COVID.

Each month, Girls on the Run Las Vegas Board members watch, read, or listen to an item selected to help them think about IDEA issues (Inclusivity, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility). We call it IDEA Quest. At the monthly Board meeting, time is set aside to discuss the assignment. This helps us keep IDEA issues top of mind as we do the work of governing an organization that teaches IDEA to girls and gender expansive youth across Vegas Valley. Here is our June IDEA Quest assignment. https://lnkd.in/gJfGsBUZ
