Girl Scouts of California: Leading the State in Ensuring Girls Realize Their Boundless Potential

At Girl Scouts of California, we offer far more than just another after-school program. We’re the only girl-focused leadership organization where girls will:

• Become a Leader for Life—Not just learn a skill or play a sport, but grow confidence, mental and emotional well-being, and courage that last a lifetime.
• Gain Real-World Skills—Explore money management, communication, and problem-solving through hands-on programs like our legendary Cookie Program.
• Engage in STEM—Experience high-tech innovation, to be prepared for and lead our ever-changing world.
• Explore the Outdoors—Unplug, connect with nature, become environmental stewards, building confidence and resilience.
• Be Part of a Sisterhood—Join a supportive, inclusive community where every girl lifts others up—something no other program offers at this scale.
• Make a Lasting Impact—Turn personal passions into community projects, developing empathy and a sense of purpose that sets them apart in college, careers, and life.

For more than 113 years, Girl Scouts have been uniquely prepared to lead—at home, in school, and in the world at large—as part of a unique program and sisterhood that no single activity class, sport, or club can match.

Throughout California, more than 125,000 Girl Scouts are becoming leaders of courage, confidence, and character. They are guided by trained adult volunteers and staff in eight councils in every county in California. Girl Scouts make the world a better place.
