Through staff-led troops, gswcf provides the girl scout leadership experience to more than 1,209 girls (11% of our total girl membership) in community areas that need it most. These girls are served in community centers, schools and a variety of sites through grant funding and are able to participate in traditional girl scout activities like the badge work, advocacy, the girl scout cookie program and a variety of emotional and behavioral skill-building exercises that develop their self-esteem, confidence and critical life skills. Research has shown that members of staff-led troops experienced improvements in the areas of confidence, communication, interpersonal relationship skills, improved grades, improved school attendance and decreases in school disciplinary action.
