Morning Cruise with Hilary Alexander from Great Girls

 Morning Cruise 2/1/24

On February 1st, we sat down with Hilary Alexander from Great Girls, an organization that mentors high school girls and helps them get jobs.  We talked about everything from the changing landscape of the workforce to the importance of giving back to your community to tackling mental health challenges.

We talked about the unique challenges girls face when entering the workforce, and what the organization is doing to help.  By providing long-term mentorship, and a variety of workshops, Great Girls is helping prepare a new generation of young women to get jobs.  They are celebrating their 10th year in 2024, and opening up their 3rd location!
