At EmpowHer, we’re focused on the eradication of the dropout epidemic among Los Angeles high school students, especially low-income, minority girls in our city’s most disadvantaged neighborhoods. Approximately 34 percent of inner-city girls – one out of every three – will not graduate on time. We aim to change that to zero percent.
