Girls on the Run is a positive youth development program designed to increase and enhance girls’ social, psychological, and physical competencies to successfully navigate the challenges of adolescence. The program includes girls in the third through fifth grades who combine training for a 5k running event with healthy living education. The ECCF funding provided scholarship dollars to help low-income Elkhart County families bridge the gap and ensure more girls the opportunity to participate in this transformative program.
