At Girl Scouts of Connecticut, girls in grades K-12 can’t wait to learn new things, make new friends, and have fun. Girl Scouts of Connecticut is the place for girls to take part in the ultimate girl-led experience.
At Girl Scouts, girls are encouraged to choose their activities, decide what topics they want to explore, and determine how they want to go about exploring them.
Girl Scouts is the largest girl-led organization in the world. It provides opportunities for making friends, trying new things, and exercising leadership skills through activities like building robots, participating in the Girl Scout Cookie Program, playing sports, and more.
