GS Advocates is a vibrant and inclusive alliance for teenage Girl Scouts who are passionate about advocacy, community engagement, and making a difference. The mission is to empower young women to tackle critical community issues, develop media literacy, and build resilience, all while celebrating diversity and ensuring every member feels included.
Through GS Advocates, you'll have the opportunity to earn a youth certification in leadership, advocacy, and other essential skills that will help you make a real impact. We balance our important work with plenty of fun, including exciting field trips designed to bring our community closer and deepen our understanding of the issues we care about.
This hybrid series includes both monthly Zoom meetings, typically the first Monday of each month. The GS Advocates meeting starts at 6pm. As part of this event we may be discussing the topics presented in the GS Lounge (stating at 5pm). All those registered are encouraged to attend if interested!
