Alternatives For Girls

Every Girl Deserves the Chance to Feel Safe

Every day, girls and young women in our community face homelessness, domestic violence, human trafficking, poverty, and other life-altering challenges. Too many are forced to choose between unsafe situations and having nowhere to go.

At Alternatives For Girls, they don't have to face those challenges alone.

For nearly 40 years, we've provided safety, housing, education, counseling, and opportunities that help girls and young women not only survive—but build brighter, independent futures.

When you support Alternatives For Girls through the Rocket Mortgage Community Challenge, you're helping provide safe shelter, life-changing programs, and hope for hundreds of girls, young women, and families every year.

Together, we can help change her story.

How Your Support Changes Lives

Safe Shelter		Youth & Prevention Programs		Housing Stability
When a young woman has nowhere else to turn, AFG provides emergency shelter, safety, and compassionate support. Our shelter serves girls and young women ages 15–21, including young mothers with children up to age five, offering a place to heal and begin again.		The effects of trauma can last a lifetime—but they don't have to define a future. Through mentoring, education, and prevention programs, girls gain confidence, healthy relationships, leadership skills, and the support they need to reach their full potential.		A safe home is more than four walls—it's the foundation for healing, employment, education, and independence. We help young women and families secure stable housing and build lasting self-sufficiency.
