GFC Phoenix's 3rd annual Spring Into Action was held on Jan. 31, 2009 at Phoenix College.

This dynamic and energizing day for Girl Action Teams includes guest speakers, performers and workshops for girls and GFC Coaches. 

Girls take workshops on skills they need for creating social change including networking, budgeting, organizing and working with elected officials. Teams also have time to work on their project plan as they are preparing to implement a social change project in their community.

The FREE event includes a light morning snack and lunch. Girls also receive goodie bags!
