Bridge to Ambassador: Earning your Award
Bridge to Ambassador: Outcomes

Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors participate in Girl Scouting in many ways. Under the guidance of a trained adult advisor, girls mix and match activities and resources to suit their needs while giving back to their communities. They connect with each other and build self-esteem and confidence in their skills as they work on a range of projects and gain life experiences.

You'll also explore new places and cultures, meet new people and be challenged to take action.
