About Girl Trek
GirlTrek originated from a powerful friendship between two college friends, Morgan and Vanessa, in Los Angeles who shared a belief in radical acts of self-care. Now headquartered in Washington, DC, GirlTrek has evolved into a life-saving sisterhood that extends far beyond walking—it is a movement rooted in healing, justice, and community transformation. The organization serves Black women and girls by creating spaces where personal wellness intersects with collective liberation and systemic change.
At its core, GirlTrek invites women to step into the healthy, fulfilling lives they deserve by walking into their own healing journeys. The organization recognizes that each woman's story matters, and in quiet moments, members open their front doors to let the sunshine in. Whether walking alone to listen to their own heartbeats or walking together in solidarity, GirlTrek members step out in faith toward their healthiest, most fulfilled lives. The organization honors the legacy of foremothers like Harriet, understanding that walking itself becomes an act of resistance and reclamation.
Serving the Washington, DC community and beyond, GirlTrek builds intergenerational connections where healing is deeply personal. The mission becomes one of coming back to get a sister—creating a network of support grounded in love, momentum, and the collective power of Black women everywhere. This sisterhood transforms individual acts of self-care into a mass movement for health justice, proving that joy, rest, and community are themselves revolutionary acts.
