At Girl Scouts, we develop leaders through dedication to and development of character, conduct, and community service. Through Girl Scouting, girls discover fun, friendship, and the power of girls together.
This is an organization by girls, for girls, and of girls, devoted to building self-esteem, strong values, and a social conscience. The inner strength and self-confidence she gains through Girl Scouts will last a lifetime.

The Girl Scout Leadership Experience
The Girl Scout Leadership Experience engages girls in discovering self, connecting with others, and taking action to make the world a better place. All Girl Scout experiences are intentionally designed to tie to one or more of the 15 national leadership outcomes, or benefits, categorized under three keys to leadership. |
Discover: Girls understand themselves and their values and use their knowledge and skills to explore the world.
Connect: Girls care about, inspire, and team with others locally and globally.
Take Action: Girls act to make the world a better place.
The Girl Scout Leadership Experience provides three processes for adults partnering with girls to incorporate: Girl Led, Cooperative, Learning by Doing.
