Crittenton Services for Children and Families

We believe in a whole-girl, whole-community (holistic) approach. Our programs and activities are specifically designed to meet girls where they are, with mentorship, sisterhood, academic support and appropriate goal setting.

Crittenton Services of Greater Washington empowers teen girls to overcome obstacles, make positive choices, and achieve their goals through programs in schools throughout the Greater Washington area. Through our programs, teen girls learn to value their gifts and develop essential life skills. Most importantly, they attain a belief in their ability to succeed. For three decades, the results have been life changing: the girls in our programs are staying in school, avoiding pregnancy, graduating from high school, and going on to college and jobs.
