Girls who lead turn in to women who thrive.

Girl Scouts is a girl-serving organization, so our members are girls.

Girls are twice as likely as boys to avoid leadership roles for fear of being deemed 'bossy' by their peers.

Too often, nonprofits are viewed as rigid and bureaucratic - less nimble and capable of adapting in this fluid environment than our corporate counterparts. I don't agree.

Cyber bullies can hide behind a mask of anonymity online, and do not need direct physical access to their victims to do unimaginable harm.

At Girl Scouts, we are committed to raising awareness about the terrible effects of cyber bullying, and to teaching girls how to recognize the signs of bullying of any sort and extricate themselves or another from a bad situation before it spirals out of control and ends in tragedy.

Girls who lead turn in to women who thrive.
