Review for Hearing and Speech Center of Northern California, San Francisco, CA, USA
HSC has a very caring a dedicated staff, from the preschool to the auditory and speech team. I like that they take a comprehensive approach to tackling communication challenges by having multiple services under one roof. It's easier for the team to collaborate and it's much more efficient for the patient.
Review for Girl Scouts of Southern Nevada, Las Vegas, NV, USA
I was a troop leader for many years and I have to say, I was impressed with the safety standards of the organization, and the training and ongoing support they provide their volunteers. To volunteer as a troop leader, I had to provide references, had a background check, and a co-leader who was not related in any way. The organization looked after everything and provided me training before I ever held my first meeting. Admittedly, I was a little nervous at first because I had no idea what I was doing. But the organization and its volunteer support system helped me to feel included and gave me a wealth of resources to rely on for support.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I only became a leader because I wanted my daughter to continue in the program and her leader had just quit. I knew it was good for my daughter, but I had no idea the impact I would have on the other girls in my troop. Next to raising my own kids, mentoring the girls in my troop was one of the most important things I ever done. I can't think of a better way to give back to my community and have an impact in the world.

I'd like to see them have a larger presence in the community. Girl Scouts provides so many great opportunities for girls and volunteers, but it's one of the best kept secrets - not sure people really know what they're missing.
