The hardest part of starting anything is starting. So congratulations! You’ve stepped over the line; something is drawing you to begin a Courageous Girls group for your daughter. To build the best foundation for your new group, follow the steps listed at the bottom of this page.

You are worth it. She is worth it.

We’ve provided you with everything you’ll need along the way—including a faith-informed curriculum for grades 2-12 that’s entirely FREE.

That’s right — there’s no cost to start a Courageous Girls group!

The only thing missing is your unique fingerprint, along with other mamas and daughters. As you sink into trusting God each step of the way, believe that He is with you, going before you and empowering you to be a catalyst for transforming relationships.

If you’re an “ask questions first” kind of a person, you’ll find answers on the FAQ page.

After registering your group on the app you will be able to invite members to join your private chat, use the polling tool, share prayer requests and more!

Leadership is necessary. Great leadership is even more essential. God will use your obedient “yes” to grow you, your own faith and your relationship with your daughter as she watches you step out to start this group with her in mind! We are right beside you as your coaches.

You’ve got this.
