PACE CENTER FOR GIRLS in Orlando is a non-profit, non-residential educational and social service program specifically designed to meet the unique needs of at-risk adolescent girls. The program focuses on providing a gender-responsive, trauma-informed environment where girls can stabilize their lives, improve their academic standing, and develop the emotional tools necessary for long-term success. By offering a blend of accredited academic instruction, social services, and counseling, the center aims to divert girls from the juvenile justice system and provide them with a supportive community that encourages personal growth and self-sufficiency.
