A free program for high school girls in East Las Vegas

Our story

It started
in the bathroom.

The real talk has always happened in the girls’ bathroom — the questions, the jokes, the worries. We just gave it a time and a place.

Why “The Girls’ Room”

Where real talk
lives.

Safe. Candid. Yours.

Think about where girls actually talk. Not in class, not in front of everyone. It’s in the girls’ bathroom, between bells, where someone fixes her hair and finally asks the question she’s been holding all day.

That’s where truth, vulnerability, and connection show up on their own. Nobody’s grading you. Nobody’s rushing you. You can ask about your body, your relationships, or what’s going on at home, and the girl next to you gets it.

The Girls’ Room takes that feeling and gives it structure: a private space for candid conversations, with caring women who answer honestly and keep showing up.

The Girls’ Room Las Vegas

Ms. Peace founded The Girls’ Room to empower and uplift young women by giving them safe, affirming spaces for leadership, mentorship, and personal growth — the kind of room where girls can say the real thing out loud.
