Girl Scout Program
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.

It’s Your Story – Tell It! Journey Series
Available in December 2010, the "It's Your Story—Tell It!" leadership journey
series uses a storytelling theme in a fun and grade-level relevant way for girls to better understand themselves and their potential. Building a strong sense of self is an underlying goal of the series, which was made possible in part by a generous grant from the Dove Self-Esteem Fund.
The journeys give girls opportunities to develop leadership skills through fun and engaging multidisciplinary content and activities. On this journey, an emphasis is also placed on media literacy and creative expression. All along the journey, girls have opportunities to engage in a variety of arts, including performing, visual, culinary, and new media, to tell their stories and take action to make the world a better place.
