As a Girl Scout troop leader, you’ll guide girls to build confidence, explore the outdoors, make new friends, and discover their strengths, all while having fun every step of the way.
A Girl Scout troop is more than just meetings, it’s a safe, supportive space where girls dream big and take action to make their world better.
And you won’t do it alone: with training, ready-to-go meeting plans, and an entire Girl Scout team by your side, you’ll feel confident and prepared to lead.
Be the role model they’ll remember forever, become a Girl Scout troop leader today!
Troop leaders connect girls with opportunities to develop their skills and challenge them to think creatively about how they can make the world a better place. With the help of a co-leader, troop leaders will organize troop meetings 1-2 times per month for 60-90 minutes.
Our research shows that girls need to shape their own paths to develop leadership skills. Because of this, we have a digital resource, the Volunteer Toolkit, to guide troop leaders through organizing meetings and accomplishing badges and journeys. Plus, every troop leader has a team of council staff members and other volunteers to provide guidance and share resources.
