If you are a girl between 10-18 years, GPI is here for your benefit and safety. Our facilitators and counsellors believe and are committed to ensuring that adolescent girls aged 10-18 years receive information and skills to become physically, emotionally and mentally healthy and are able to manage their lives through informed decisions in order to achieve their full potentials in life.
We educate, inform and train girls to stand up for their rights as human beings as well as offer services to meet their health, educational and life management needs. Admission into the organisation is free and is done once a year in Calabar, Uyo and Asaba in the first week of September and twice a year in Benin City in January and August.
