A key part of the New Girl Scout Leadership Experience is the leadership journey, a coordinated series of activities grouped around a theme. Each journey is tied to some of Girl Scouts' 15 national outcomes for girls, as defined in the Girl Scout Leadership Model. These outcomes are integral to the three leadership keys, Discover, Connect, and Take Action (PDF, 31KB).
This year GSUSA is rolling out one leadership journey for each grade level. These initial journeys invite girls to explore a specific leadership theme for their level. Subsequent journeys will layer on more multidisciplinary content, like science and technology, healthy living, and the outdoors.
This first series of journeys, It's Your World—Change It!, has lots to offer.
Focusing on Outcomes of the New Girl Scout Leadership Experience
Girl Scouting is meeting girls' definition of what it takes to be a leader with the New Girl Leadership Experience—a model that engages girls in discovering themselves, connecting with others, and taking action to make the world a better place. This model is more inclusive and empowering of girls as the experiences are, as much as possible, girl led and encourage experiential and cooperative learning.
