For questions, please contact GSGLA by email at customercare@girlscoutsla.org or phone at 213 213-0123.

Step 1: Review the GSGLA In-person Activity Guidance for Volunteers document.

Step 2: Every member/girl/family that will meet in person must fill out the GSGLA Member Agreement Participation Form / Formulario de Acuerdo de Participación del Miembro de GSGLA.

Families can assist in helping to maintain a safe environment for all girls and volunteers. An agreement should be completed by families prior to the first in-person meeting. It outlines what families can expect and how they can help. (A hard copy of this physical form will be maintained by troop leaders.)

Step 3: Complete the Assumption of Risk, Release, and Liability Related to COVID-19 eForm.

This eForm should be completed for each participant (girls and adults) who are attending in-person meetings, leaders will receive notification that troop members have completed it. If you have questions regarding completion, please contact covid19@girlscoutsla.org.

Step 4: The member attending an in-person meeting/activity should complete the COVID-19 Self-Screening Assessment / Evaluación de Auto-Examen de COVID-19 prior to attendance at every in-person gathering to ensure that participants are following health screening guidelines. You are not required to submit this document, only to conduct the self-assessment prior to leaving home.

Step 5: Print and have available the Troop/Service Unit In-person Meeting Activity Sign-In sheet / Planilla de Inscripción para Actividad/Reunión Presencial de la Unidad de Servicios/Patrulla de GSGLA.

This sheet is to be completed for each troop or service unit in-person gathering. It serves two purposes 1.) to indicate that participants acknowledge that screening guidelines have been met and 2.) serves as a roster of those who were physically present for event or activity (This form is to be retained by meeting organizer, see details on form.)

COVID-19 Self-Screening Assessment 

Please complete the self-screening assessment prior to attending a GSGLA in-person activity, meeting, event, or property. You are not required to submit this document, only to conduct the self-assessment prior to leaving home.
