Outreach Initiatives

Our Outreach programs help girls to set out on a path to success they otherwise would not have been able to take or even envision. Trained leaders deliver the Girl Scout experience throughout southeastern Wisconsin who would not be able to participate in Girl Scouting without special assistance.
