As a Girl Scout troop leader, you’ll guide girls to build confidence, explore the outdoors, make new friends, and discover their strengths, all while having fun every step of the way.
A Girl Scout troop is more than just meetings, it’s a safe, supportive space where girls dream big and take action to make their world better.
And you won’t do it alone: with training, ready-to-go meeting plans, and an entire Girl Scout team by your side, you’ll feel confident and prepared to lead.
Be the role model they’ll remember forever, become a Girl Scout troop leader today!
Once you have completed these steps, your volunteer experience manager (VEM) will contact you with information about the next steps to get your troop up and running. In addition, the VEM will connect you with experienced volunteers in your area and direct you to valuable resources to assist you in your new role!
A minimum of two unrelated troop leaders and five girls are needed to start a troop. The recommended number of girls in a troop is 12. If you do not have enough girls or a co-leader, don't worry, we can help. We have plenty of excited girls waiting to join a troop in your area!
