The Girl Scout Program

The Girl Scout Program is girl-driven, reflecting the ever-changing needs and interests of today's girls in grades K through 12.

Why Join Girl Scouts

The wide variety of opportunities in the program encourages skill building and responsibility, as well as promotes the development of strong leadership and decision-making skills. All program activities are age-appropriate and based on the Girl Scout Promise and Law and the Girl Scout Leadership Experience (read more here).

  • Girls participate in the Cookie Program and earn activity credits to use toward camp and in the Girl Scout Shop.
