Mission

Curls, Coils, & Crowns is culturally relevant, gender-responsive nonprofit organization serving the Inland Empire community of Southern California. Since 2016, the organization has been dedicated to enriching the lives of school-aged Black girls by focusing on self-love, self-image, and self-efficacy. Through its flagship "Wear Your C.R.O.W.N.' program, Curls, Coils & Crowns provides school-based sessions that incorporate African-centered lessons and social-emotional wellness strategies. These sessions aim to foster self-awareness, positive self-image, and a sense of identity among participants. The organization's commitment is to disrupt systems that hinder Black girls from achieving greatness by creating safe, affirming environments where they can learn to love themselves unapologetically.
