Why Choose Girl Scouts?

Girl Scouting provides girls with opportunities to develop important life-skills. In a recent national research study girls responded that because of their Girl Scout activities they have the chance to develop nine important characteristics, including:

Self Reliance
Self-Competence
Social Skills (ability to make friends)
Respect for Others
Feelings of Belonging
Values-clarification and Decision-making
Helpfulness and Concern for Community
Teamwork
Leadership

All girls are invited to join Girl Scouting --- including girls with special needs, girls of every race, religion and socioeconomic background.

If your daughter requires special assistance, please contact GSCNC's Inclusion Specialist via email or by calling 800 523-7898 ext 251, and let us know how we can help. Troop leaders are supported by council staff to find resources that meet a variety of needs. Together, we will find a troop that works for her.

If finances are a concern, financial aid is available to help pay for membership, uniforms, books, dues and/or program events.
