Who we are.
Our D2F Formation
Since 1994, Demoiselle 2 Femme, NFP (D2F) has guided thousands of girls on the path to womanhood with purpose and power. As we reimagine our role in the 21st century, we remain committed to creating girl-centered, sustainable solutions that address inequities in the social determinants of health.
The D2F Formation reflects the full breadth of our transformative work, both in ministry and in the marketplace. It includes the organizations, initiatives, and collaborations we have founded or revitalized to advance holistic well-being for girls. We are program architects, researchers, educators, advocates, organizers, and community builders committed to addressing the root causes, not just the symptoms, of injustice and inequity. Through this formation, we embody innovation, faith, and collective impact.

WHAT WE DO
- Demoiselle 2 Femme (D2F) was founded in December 1994 by Sherida Morrison and Romanetha Looper at Faith Temple Church of God in Christ in Chicago.
- Born out of a deep concern for the personal and social challenges facing teen girls in the Englewood community, D2F was created to provide positive role models and meaningful support to help girls successfully transition into womanhood. With just a $500 annual church budget, the program was sustained in its early years by the unwavering dedication of community partners and a powerful sisterhood of Femme mentors who poured their time, wisdom, and love into each girl they served.
“We didn’t start D2F to create an organization—we were just meeting the needs of girls in our community and congregation. What began as a small program is now a movement and a legacy.”
— Sherida Morrison, Co-Founder
