The report documents scholarship that shows great promise for informing a gender-based approach to examining the lives of Black girls. It will also highlight potential strategies to improve the life outcomes of Black girls.

It looks at both what is known about young women and gender norms generally, as well as what is known – and not yet known – about race-based gender norms and Black girls.
