The Girl Scout Leadership Experience engages
girls in discovering self, connecting with others, and
taking action to make the world a better place.
Discover, Connect, and Take Action are the three
keys to Leadership.
Discover: Girls understand themselves and their values
and use their knowledge and skills to explore the world.
Connect: Girls care about, inspire, and team with
others locally and globally.
Take Action: Girls act to make the world a better place.
