Volunteers

Adult Volunteers are an important part of the Girl Scout experience.  Volunteers offer the girls the chance to have an experience of a lifetime, making memories that will last a lifetime. As an adult volunteer, you will receive training to give you the tools you need to get started and continue to develop the Girl Scout Leadership Experience. You are surrounded by a supportive staff as well as over 7500 Girl Scout Volunteers. Thank you for joining this adventure to Build Girls of Courage, Confidence and Character who Make the World a Better Place.

Our goal is to make sure that you receive the tools you need to be successful and deliver the Girl Scout Leadership Experience. Whether you're working with a Girl Scout Troop, or volunteering at Day Camp, we can help!

Girl Scout Pathways

Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) recently developed a more flexible model for participation in Girl Scouting.  Pathways correspond with the exciting work of GSUSA's Core Business Strategy to create nationally consistent and flexible ways for girls and adults to participate in the Girl Scout Leadership Experience.

Most participants believe the Pathways model is an ideal approach to attract and retain new members and will ultimately optimize the Girl Scout Leadership Experience and achieve measureable outcomes for girls and adults.  

So what do Pathways mean for girls and adults everywhere?

• Membership flexibility and participation options
• Increased volunteer retention and recruitment -- more adults to serve and support more girl members
• Increased flexibility encourages more girls to join Girl Scouting
• Increased interest from adults who desire to provide direct service to girls through more short term volunteer opportunities
• Current girl and adult members can remain with the organization longer because of the flexible ways to join and volunteer

When a girl or an adult joins the organization, she or he becomes a Girl Scout member. Girls can choose any one, all, or some of these pathways camp, events, series, travel, troops, and virtual, within a single school year.

The flexibility of Pathways will allow adults to participate in Girl Scouting based on their lifestyle and availability whether the adult prefers to partner directly with girls throughout a membership year, participate for only a few weeks or months, or work with other adults in a variety of roles.
