In the footsteps of a civil rights legacy, and with over 700,000 members, GirlTrek is the largest national health movement to activate thousands of Black women to be change-makers in their lives communities-through walking.

GirlTrek has developed world-class training for Black women to serve as health and wellness ambassadors in the areas of fitness, mental health, nutrition, environmental stewardship have a goal to inspire one million Black women girls to develop a daily habit of walking.

The GirlTrek pledge is as follows:

(v.) To lace up our sneakers and walk each day as a declaration of self-care!

(v.) To heal our bodies, inspire our daughters, and reclaim the streets of our neighborhoods.

(v.) To reestablish walking as a healing tradition in Black communities as tribute to those who walked before us.

(n.) A health movement organized by volunteers across America to inspire one million by 2020.

Through wellness events like its Stress Protest, GrilTrek puts Black women first-promoting radical self-care. They're on a mission to mobilize one million Black Women to walk by the end of 2020, and they're well on their way! The organization is truly reimagining wellness, one step at a time.
