There is no better place for a girl to develop her independence and confidence than Girl Scouts! What makes Girl Scouts different? We connect girls with opportunities to develop their leadership skills at all levels, starting with our youngest leaders, Girl Scout Daisies, all the way through Girl Scout Ambassadors, our high school seniors! Girl Scouts can follow one or both paths of our leadership programs. Each path builds skills in different types of leadership.
These award focus on the leadership skills of project management and team leadership and culminates in the Girl Scout Highest Awards of Girl Scout Bronze, Silver, and Gold. All three awards challenge girls to complete pre-requisites and then develop and implement a sustainable project to solve an identified problem in a community.
Community Service offers many benefits in helping Girl Scouts to develop strong leadership skills. Identifying needs within a community and making a plan to address those needs is a skill used by leaders. Applying public speaking skills when networking and making connections with others are also key leadership qualities. Community Service helps girls to recognize and understand how to apply their own knowledge, skills, and resources to achieve their goals as well as develop their confidence in realizing they can do great things. In return, this service creates a positive connection between Girl Scouts and local communities.
Take part in this annual celebration where Girl Scouts come together to explore their local state parks.
