Girl Scouts of the USA is the world's preeminent organization dedicated solely to girls-all girls-where, in an accepting
and nuturing environment, girls build character and skills for success in the real world. In partnership with committed
adult volunteers, girls develop qualities athat will serve them all their lives, like leadership, stong values, social conscience
and conviction about their own potential and self-worth.
The Girl Scout program can change the way girls see the world and their place in it. Girls learn the importance of personal
responsibility, the value of goal-setting, the spirit of teamwork, and the thrill of accomplishment. The Girl Scout program
is based on the Girl Scout Promise and Law and four fundamental goals that encourage girls to:
- Develop to their full potential.
- Relate to others with increasing understanding, skill, and respect.
- Develop a meaningful set of values to guide their actions and to provide for sound decision-making.
- Contribute to the improvement of society.
Girl Scouts are divided into Daisy Girl Scouts (ages 5-6), Brownie Girl Scouts (ages 6-8), Junior Girl Scouts (ages 8-11),
and STUDIO 2B® for girls ages 11-17.
