Founded in 1987, Alternatives For Girls helps homeless and high-risk girls and young women avoid violence, teen pregnancy, and exploitation, and helps 

them to explore and access the support, resources and opportunities necessary to be safe, to grow strong, and to make positive choices in their lives.  For more information, you can check out their website: AlternativesForGirls.org

Please feel free to contact me by e-mail at cmerritt@wayne.edu if you have questions or wish additional information.

Thank you all in advance for your thoughtfulness 

and generosity this holiday season!
