The Girl Scout Program

Girl Scouts is more than cookies, crafts and camping.  Girl Scouts is a leadership organization for girls.  Through the Girl Scout Leadership Experience, girls are given the tools to learn the skills needed to become our future leaders.

Please visit Journeys and Pathways to learn more about these programs.

Girl Scout Leadership Experience
All experiences in Girl Scouting incorporate the Discover, Connect, and Take Action keys to leadership. Girls Discover themselves and their values and use their knowledge and skills to explore the world. They Connect with other girls and adults. And, they Take Action to make the world a better place.  Learn more: Leadership Experience.
