Girls on the Run of the Greater Chesapeake is a life-changing, positive youth empowerment program for girls in 3rd-8th grade. Our mission is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.
We welcome enthusiastic, dedicated, and positive volunteers who are committed to empowering girls with valuable life lessons. Coaches are parents, teachers, school administrators, college students, and other community members who are committed to developing and celebrating our girls.
We have two requirements for our Community Coaches: commit to working with a group of girls for one or two practices a week throughout the 8-week season and bring energy and joy to each practice!

Description
The Girls on the Run lessons encourage positive emotional, social, mental and physical development. Girls on the Run inspires girls to recognize their inner strength and celebrate what makes them one of a kind. Trained coaches lead small groups of girls through the research-based curricula which teaches girls social, emotional and physical well-being. Over the course of the ten-week program, offered in both fall and spring, girls develop essential life skills to help them navigate their worlds and establish a lifetime appreciation for health and fitness. The program culminates with girls positively impacting their communities through a service project and being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5K event where the finish line is just the beginning.
