Parents
Whether she is 5 or 17, you want the girl in your life to become self-confident, strong and compassionate. You want her to respect herself and others, make good decisions, be open to new challenges, and use her skills and talents to make the world a better place. You want her to build strong friendships, be a leader, and put her values into practice in her everyday life.
Through the Girl Scout Leadership Development Program, girls will discover their personal best and prepare for a positive future, connect with others in an increasing diverse world, and take action to solve problems and improve their communities. Our mission is to build girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place.
Girl Scout activities are open to all girls who are members of Girl Scouting, are based on the Girl Scout Promise and Law, follow health and safety standards and are done with the support of caring, trained adults. The Girl Scout program provides engaging and worthwhile activities that respond to the needs of today’s girls, with flexibility that respects their busy lives- and yours!
