Causes: Children & Youth, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A.
Mission: Girl scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.
Programs: The girl scout leadership experience prepares girls for furture roles as leaders in their communities by combining the core values of courage, confidence and character with today's programs of enviromental stewardship, financial management, technology, science, entrepreneurship, math, and engineering. The girl scout program reflects the belief that a leader understands herself and her values (discover); cares about and teams with others (connect); and acts to make the world a better place (take action). During the past year over 9,500 girls in north-central alabama were given the leadership skills to make the world a better place.
the girl scout outdoor education experience is a place where girls can embrace the natural environment and develop self-confidence and leadership skills in the out-of-doors. The outdoor education program provides adults and girls the skills and experiences they need to build a foundation for self-confidence, healthy lifestyles and team building through participation in day and resident camp, weekend events, troop camping and other overnight experiences.
