For over 110 years, Girl Scouts has and will continue to be an instrument of change, promoting equitable outcomes for all. Girl Scouts of the Chesapeake bay wholly commits to taking action to grow as an anti-racist and antioppressive organization so that, through Girl Scouts, our members are affirmed as they strive to make our community and world better.
As part of that commitment, we will continue to research, produce and provide resources to our members that will aid our efforts in promoting Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion comes to life through the everyday experiences of Girl Scouts. This guide provides practical strategies to help volunteers create inclusive, supportive, and welcoming troop environments.
Inside, you’ll find guidance on communication, accessibility, trauma-informed practices, and supporting a wide range of needs, all designed to help every Girl Scout feel valued and able to participate.
This guide is supported by our companion gsLearn training, 200: Inclusive Girl Scouting.
