OUR VISION: To build a strong and empowered feminist institution with critical consciousness and capacity for analysis of social and gender prejudices, committed to managing and educating girls into healthy self-reliant, productive and confident women for the achievement of positive changes and transformation of patriarchal values in Nigeria.
