Become a Girl Scout

Totally fun. Totally you. Be a Girl Scout.

Right now, Girl Scouts are meeting furry friends at the local animal shelters, giggling past lights-out at star-gazing sleepovers, and learning how their favorite roller coasters work.

Above all else, they’re having a blast—because they know bringing the fun is all about being their true selves, trying new things, and cheering each other on.

Find friends and explore troops  in your area by grade, location, and more.
Start a new troop and invite friends, classmates, and/or your community to join! Our staff will be in touch to support you through the process. Learn more about the process.
Join us for free virtual and in-person events to learn how Girl Scouts works and test it out!
