Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. The focal point of the Girl Scout program is the Girl Scout Leadership Experience (GSLE) – the framework for defining what girls do in Girl Scouting. Programs engage girls in three key activities: discovering who they are and what they value; connecting with others; and taking action to make the world a better place. To ensure a high-​quality and fun experience, Girl Scout activities use three processes: girl-​led, learning-​by-​doing, and cooperative-​learning. Our success is demonstrated by the fact that Girl Scout alumnae make up 80 percent of female executives and business owners, and two-​thirds of women serving in the U.S. Congress.
