We celebrate and honor every unique individual Girl Scout, adult, volunteer, and staff member, along with the multifaceted experiences that they bring to our council.
We believe that embracing our diversity leads to social, emotional, and innovative excellence, and we will continue to actively seek to understand the complex and rich identities of self and others, as well as strive for our programs to reflect the depth of our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and access (DEIA).
To ensure Girl Scouts is an inclusive organization that inherently enlists intentional strategies in culture, program, and service to foster involvement and remove barriers—especially for those that have historically been excluded or marginalized, so girls, families, volunteers, and staff of all backgrounds feel that Girl Scouts is for them.
We are committed to providing programs, policy, and culture that promote diversity, equity, inclusion, and access through opportunities, relationships, and meaningful experiences that inspire empathetic leadership and cultivate an environment of belonging for the diverse voices and perspectives of our community.
In our Movement, we believe diversity is a hallmark of our membership, equity is at the heart of our foundation, inclusivity is a cornerstone of our culture, access is at the forefront of our programs, and belonging is at the center of our mission.
