"Oasis is a good program because it gets us out into the community, like attending the Annual Young Women's conference. It also gives us the chance to express ourselves through art... it's cool"

Our Vision: Oasis For Girls cultivates generations of strong and creative women who realize their potential, live healthy lives and make a positive impact in their communities.

Our Mission: Oasis For Girls provides a safe space where girls and young women are inspired and empowered to become strong and creative leaders in their communities.

Oasis For Girls provides culturally relevant and gender specific Arts and Arts Education, Leadership Development, and Life Skills Education programs that support the growth of low-income and immigrant girls and young women of color in urban communities. Through these programs, girls and young women have access to a community of adults who support them in creating change and integrating their skills to address issues they face in their lives and in their communities.

Open for Girls and Young Women Ages 11-24
Office Hours: Monday - Friday 11am to 7pm

*Please note program hours may vary. Please contact staff for program inquiries.


Who We Serve: The young women and girls who we serve reflect the rich diversity of the SoMa district and other neighborhoods throughout San Francisco. They range in age from 11 years to 24 years. They are Latina, African American, Asian, Arab, Pacific Islander, White, and multiracical. The majority are first generation Americans, however, many of them are also recent immigrants. Most speak languages other than English in their homes. They are all unique and often times face hardships of acculturation while striving to maintain pride within their own heritages.
