I started attending Girls Inc. when I was in kindergarten, mostly in the summers. For me, Girls Inc. became more than just a safe place—it is a community of strong, caring women and girls who became a network of support, especially through my parents’ divorce. It was at Girls Inc. that I learned to make spaghetti and French toast, and it was where I learned to sew. I first mastered the monkey bars at Girls Inc. on the play-ground. I have spent many summers and many days after school at Girls Inc., and when I look at the young woman I see in the mirror today, I know that she grew up at Girls Inc.

I remember being six years old sitting in the theater at Girls Inc. watching the older girls perform. I was captivated by the magical way the lights transformed the stage and by the way the red, velvet curtains swayed as they opened. More than anything, I desperately wanted to be on that stage. After begging my par-ents, I was finally signed up for the Drama Camp program, and immediately I fell in love. I clearly recall the first time I acted in a Girls Inc. play; I had the opening line, and as the curtain parted I found myself standing there feeling naked. It was the most intoxicating feeling as the adrenaline rushed through me and my heart galloped in my chest. It was on that stage that I found an indelible sense of confidence, along with my voice.

The beauty of Drama Camp was that as the actresses, we wrote our own plays. We came up with the story lines, often wild and improbable scenarios, and we wrote the script. At Girls Inc., we were allowed to let our creativity guide us. On that stage, we could become literally anything we imagined. Between fourth and eighth grade, I acted in and helped write almost a dozen plays at Girls Inc. The summer before my freshman year, I transi-tioned from being a Drama Camp participant to being a volun-teer theater coach. The next summer, I was employed as a camp counselor. In this capacity, I was able to continue being a part of Drama Camp by helping younger girls write their own plays. Last year, my theater coach and mentor Asa Olsson retired, and I was asked to run the theater program at Girls Inc. I volunteered

with the girls twice a week during the second semester of my junior year to help them write their play “The Mystery of the Missing Model.” I believe that participating in Drama Camp is a valuable, enriching experience and I wanted the younger girls to have the same opportunity that I had to develop their imagina-tions on stage.

In middle school, I joined the theater group at Girls Inc. for teenagers called Teen Thought Theater. We put on plays about sensitive issues that teens face to initiate dialogue with our families and community members. One of our plays, “But I’m Only Seventeen,” addressed ta-boo topics such as teen pregnancy, sui-cide, drunk driving, and date rape. Deal-ing with these issues on stage helped me in later years when I would be exposed to the same problems and pressures in high school. Another initiative that Teen Thought Theater was involved in was creating public service announcements for the Rape Crisis Center. Several scenes that we wrote were produced as radio PSA’s aimed at breaking down barriers in the campaign against sexual assault in my

community.

One of the most valuable Girls Inc. programs that I have par-ticipated in was Corporate Camp. In the summer of 2009, my team from Carpinteria was selected to go to New York City for the week-long Corporate Camp program with the company we had designed, Water Girls. On the first day of camp, we were asked to present our business models. My team had always giv-en casual, off-the-cuff presentations, but we quickly learned that “what got you here won’t get you there.” Over the course of the camp, we were challenged to overhaul our presentation and improve our business model. Throughout the week, we had the opportunity to take part in several workshops with successful female entrepreneurs. Hearing the stories of these women’s tri-als and achievements reaffirmed my conviction that with a vision and determination, I too could realize my ambitions.

K a r i n a J o u g l a P e r s o n i f i e s t h e g i r l s i n c . V i s i o n

When I reflect on the past eleven years I’ve spent at Girls Inc., I realize how much this organization has shaped who I am today.

I am honored to be part of Girls Inc. because each and every day I see the vital work that our organization, in collaboration with other local youth development programs, accomplish-es for the young women of Carpinte-ria. Over the past twelve years I have witnessed how quality, targeted pro-grams focused on development and education can build confidence, self-respect and responsibility. Girls Inc. does just that. We are a nation-ally-recognized, award-winning non-profit and we take pride in providing exemplary programs for girls ranging in age from 5-18.

Our researched-based, Strong, Smart, and Bold initiative programs aim to develop the “whole girl.” Operation SMART, for example, de-velops girls’ enthusiasm for and skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Economic Literacy promotes the ability to use basic economic concepts to make deci-sions about earning, saving, spend-ing, and sharing money. College Bound promotes academic well-be-ing and precollege preparation while exposing girls to the possibilities of higher education.

We recognize that our efforts to empower girls and young women must be tightly focused. They must be intentional. I am proud, therefore, to announce our new partnership with the Carpinteria Unified School District. Our partnership with CUSD is designed to provide academic support to girls in our program that will keep them on track towards high school graduation and college suc-cess. Over the next few months Girls Inc. will work in close collaboration with teachers, parents and volun-teers to create academic support plans for our girls. We know that they must be prepared to meet the de-mands of college, work and life. The time to prepare them is now.

Join us in building a better future by helping to develop the change-agents and community leaders of tomorrow. An investment in Girls Inc. is an investment with significant divi-dends that you can believe in. You can make a donation, volunteer in one of our programs, and support our events.

Lea Boyd is the managing editor of Coastal View News, a weekly community newspaper focused on the people and events of the Carpinteria Valley. She is a native of Carpinteria who earned her bachelor’s degree in integrative biology from U.C. Berkeley. In 2005 Boyd relocated to San Diego where she worked with a nonprofit that connects urban children with marine biology and nearby nature. She returned to Carpinteria in 2008 and is an active board member of Friends of the Carpinteria Library.

Karina Jougla continued from page 1My teammates and I bonded with all of the other girls at Cor-porate Camp, and it was amazing to learn how much we had in common with the girls from Memphis, Omaha, and Den-ver despite our different backgrounds. It was quite a culture shock coming from small-town Carpinteria to the frenetic, vibrant atmosphere of New York. One of the moments that sticks out in my mind was the evening that Girls Inc.’s former president and CEO Joyce Roché invited all of us over to her apartment for ice cream and to see the sunset-tinted glitter-ing New York skyline. Corporate Camp was a life-changing adventure that altered my perception of the business world and gave me the tools to become a successful, economi-cally independent woman in the future.

Going to college has always been part of my plan for my future. After high school, I am planning on attending a four-

year university. I am also considering continuing my educa-tion by attending graduate school. I’m mainly interested in two fields: science and law. Within the field of science, my interests lie in the studies of biology and genetics. Among the list of colleges that I would like to attend are Columbia, Stanford and UC Berkeley.

I consider my mother to be one of my most influential role models. Our family’s circumstances have been a constant challenge throughout my life, but Girls Inc. taught me how to deal with my personal challenges in a healthy way. Girls Inc. is a place that provides a safe environment for girls to try new things and grow into strong, smart, and bold women, and I believe that I’m the person I am today largely because of my experiences with Girls Inc.

When Devorah Elizalde was growing up she attended Girls Inc. on Maple Street. She can vividly recall walking from Aliso Elemen-tary School to Girls Inc. and being excited to learn about the lives of strong women. “I remember learning more about science and math, gardening, and going on field trips to places my family could not afford to take us to,” said Elizalde. “The women who worked there supported and encouraged me to think outside the box and to discover the world outside of my neighborhood.”

Today, Devorah is the Juvenile Justice Director for Girls Inc. of Carpinteria. She has been with the organization since 1999 and is responsible for the day-to-day management and operations of the Juvenile Justice Division under the umbrella of Ventura County Probation. This division serves 300 youth a year. Devorah is re-sponsible for staff, volunteers, and interns as well as coordinating key collaborations with the county. Each day Devorah and her staff provide Girls Inc. programming on financial literacy, job skills, and college and career opportunities to high-risk youth.

Devorah’s interest in working with high-risk youth began when she was a designer for a local architectural firm. Four young women on formal probation performed community service with the firm. “As I began to work with these young women and see the natural gifts they had in design, art, lettering, and media it became evident I had an opportunity to connect with these young females on various levels,” said Elizalde. Devorah began to mentor these youth after work and on weekends. She later left design and drafting to work in the youth development arena.

Her worldview widened as she worked with incarcerated girls and pursued her educational interests in Crimi-nal Justice and Psychology. She also began working in Public Policy on Capital Hill providing data and expertise on incarcerated and/or abused young girls and women to former Senator Joe Biden’s office. “I began to real-ize that only working on a local level was not enough. I needed to make a difference in Sacramento and on the Hill. The fact that girls’ voices oftentimes were marginalized as their violence levels grew and the impact of being disenfranchised resonated with me on so many levels,” said Elizalde.

Devorah became a National Trainer for Girls Inc. National. She consulted on various violence prevention proj-ects, many of which focused on gang issues, gender/race, and the media’s impact on adolescents. “My focus has always been to provide our girls with a voice. I am fortunate to be a part of such a strong National organi-zation and each day I wake up and thankful to be able to make a difference in the lives of young women.”

Devorah is in her second year at Pacifica Graduate Institute. Her goal is to earn her PhD in Depth Psychol-ogy. She lives in Santa Barbara with her daughter who is also a Girls Inc. alumnus and past Girls Inc. National Scholar.

Bump, set, spike. A visit to the Girls Inc. gym during club volleyball season reveals an important fact about the program: it’s serious. No one’s complaining about a broken nail or a few hairs out of place, these girls are playing competitive volleyball and loving every minute of it.

“It’s like an all-star travel team,” said Coach Katie Dolge of her club volleyball group. Composed of athletes in grades six through 12, the club program provides the intensive training needed for middle school girls to claim a spot on their high school team and for high school players to move up to varsity or just stay in shape and im-prove skills during the off-season.

The program begins in January and has girls practicing and compet-ing together for six months. On the travel team, girls are grouped by age and travel throughout Southern California to play weekend tournaments against other teams from the Southern California Vol-leyball Association, which spans the coast from San Luis Obispo to San Diego and stretches all the way east to Las Vegas.

Girls Inc. also offers a non-traveling team, a lower priced option that tends to be somewhat less competitive than the traveling team. Un-der the guidance of Coach Andrea Densmore, these girls compete with nearby teams from Santa Barbara and Ventura.

Volleyball skills improve dra-matically over the six months of club volleyball, but the program has several other benefits. Athletes must be-come members of Girls Inc. to play, thus making them eli-gible for college scholarships through Girls Inc. National. Many of the girls who arrive at Girls Inc. for the purpose of playing volleyball ultimately become involved in other valuable programs offered by the organization.

And the club volleyball experience itself is about much more than just perfecting shots. Girls must learn to work as a team, a team that practices together, travels together and competes together. The group dynamics provide growth opportunities for young women, and the friendships developed in club volleyball can last a lifetime.

Anyone interested in the Club Volleyball program can contact Girls Inc. at 805-684-6364 or athletics@girlsinc-carp.org.

Instructor Ericka Lopez’s eyes light up when she is asked about the Girls Inc. teen mentoring program. The program, she says, is the perfect example of what Girls Inc. is all about—creating stronger, smarter, bolder girls in a safe and fun environment.

Funded by a three-year grant, the program allows adolescent girls to participate in free educational activities with adult mentors from throughout the community. In the last year, mentees have learned cake decorating, photography, knitting and cooking, among many others.

The goal of the program, however, is not learning to knit a warm scarf or take a great photograph. The goal is to get young women to begin communicating with a trained adult mentor. As Lopez stresses, the key to the program’s success is disguising the oppor-

tunity for profound personal growth with a fun and en-gaging activity.

In addition, girls receive sup-port to create and fulfill their goals by exposing them to non-traditional careers and academic opportunities for

women. In collaboration with Carp Cares, girls will participate in a “college boot camp” focusing on PSAT/SAT preparation, financial aid opportunities, and college expectations.

The growth of the program has been phenomenal. Lopez began as the instructor last February with only a few mentors and ment-ees. Now she has seven trained mentors and 48 mentees from the middle school and high school. She has watched them blossom. “When they started, it was like pulling teeth to get them to talk,” said Lopez. Now, the same girls are comfortable with communicating about their feelings, tackling leadership roles and stepping up in terms of attitude and respect. Improvement, Lopez says, has been by “leaps and bounds.”

New mentors are always welcome, and the program’s continued growth demands that new adults participate. Keeping a low ratio of mentees to mentors is necessary to give every mentee a chance to create a bond with a mentor. Adult volunteers must commit to a one-hour training session and at least 12 weeks of mentoring. For those who are interested, Lopez has some words of advice: “Be forewarned, you’re going to love what you do.”

Anyone interested in volunteering as a mentor can contact Lopez at ericka@girlsinc-carp.org.
