HELP HER SUCCEED

When you host Girl Scout programs, girls experience girl-led programming in a space they’re comfortable learning and growing in.
Our program facilitators guide girls through team-building activities to help them overcome obstacles and resolve conflict, as well as give them space to explore their interests, discover new passions, and become leaders.

FAQS:
How long are the outreach programs?

Our programs are designed to be completed in four hours. However, we can break the programs up into four one-hour sessions or two two-hour sessions.

 

How much does the program cost?

We are thrilled to be able to offer programs for free. We have the necessary funds to cover the costs.

Do you offer programs to boys, too?

Part of the Girl Scout Experience is that the girls are in a girl-only, girl-led environment. Therefore, we do not offer our programs to boys. If working in a school, we ask that the school staff find a way to occupy the boy’s time.

 

Who teaches the programs?

Our program staff includes trained program presenters who will facilitate the program.

How do girls participate in Girl Scouts after the program has ended?

We provide the girls who participate in the program with a membership to Girl Scouts for the academic year in which they participate. Once they are Girl Scouts, they will be able to participate in all of the wonderful programs and activities Girl Scouts has to offer!
