Here is what past parents say about their daughter’s experience at GLI:

• “I am evangelical about GLI.  I am amazed with the amount of individual attention the girls received, the wonderful fun they had doing (previously perceived) difficult/ impossible physical activity.  The workshop experience was eye opening for my daughter.  She grew in confidence, grace and--best of all--acceptance of herself. I consider it the best money I ever spent.” -Kelley C.  Reading, PA.
• “It’s an amazing experience that will last a girl a lifetime and put her so far ahead in her potential by realizing her value and not getting sucked into peer pressures to behave a certain way.”  -Francine R., Westchester, PA
• “Wow. My daughter returned glowing from this experience. Thank you Simone and Rachel and the entire staff for such fantastic two weeks. You guys are doing such priceless, deeply engaged, fun, safe, inspiring (the list goes on) work with the girls. My daughter says she definitely wants to return next year. We love you guys!” - Isa B., Brooklyn, NY
• "Linnea is more confident. When she is nervous about doing something, particularly something new, she reminds herself (often out loud to me) of one of the strategies she learned at GLI.” – Mary Pederson Medelmann
• “GLI gave Roni extremely helpful tools in handling the ups and downs of growing up and dealing with her peers. She is not afraid to speak up and share her feelings. GLI works!! Every girl will gain something valuable from a GLI experience.  Roni is less worried about things other girls say to her, especially unfriendly words. She is definitely more confident.” – Jennifer Bennett

• “I am very happy my daughter had the opportunity to learn the skills from you at this important time in her life. Thank you very much for inspiring our daughters." – 2007 parent
