Program areas at Girl Scouts of Oregon and SW Washington

Girl Scouts of Oregon and SW Washington is a chartered council of Girl Scouts of the usa and serves nearly 14,000 members throughout Oregon and in clark, skamania and klickitat counties in Washington. By participating in Girl Scouts, girls learn to discover, connect and take action, developing key leadership skills that will help them throughout their lives. Girls lead their own adventures and team up with their fellow troop members in an all-girl environment to choose the exciting, hands-on activities that interest them most. Girl Scouts focuses on four areas that form the foundation of the Girl scout leadership experience: entrepreneurship, stem, outdoor activities and life skills. Community service is an essential element of all programs. (continued on schedule o)entrepreneurship: by participating in the Girl scout cookie program or fall product program, over 6,000 girls learned the essentials of running their own business and how to think like entrepreneurs, including goal setting, decision-making, money management, people skills and business ethics.
Stem: serving over 6,624 girls, we offered more than 57 stem related programs this year that served over 1,941 participants (girls and adults), along with selling over 4683 stem badges. Girl Scouts introduces girls of every age to science, technology, engineering, and math experiences relevant to everyday life. Girl scout girls are fast-forwarding into their stem futures. Girl Scouts who participate in girl-focused stem programs: - become better problem-solvers, critical thinkers, and inspirational leaders - get better grades, earn more scholarships, and follow more lucrative career paths (continued on schedule o) - see stem as the foundation for a meaningful and successful future there are so many ways to discover stem through Girl scouts!with stem journeys and badges, girls k-12 can design their own robots after learning how they're built and programmed, along with building and testing rollercoasters, race cars, and gliders with innovative engineering badges.

Outdoor experiences in Girl Scouts provide opportunities for girls to discover, connect, and take action in ways that build courage, confidence, and character. These experiences increase girls' understanding and curiosity about the natural world and shape Girl leaders who are environmentally conscientious. Spending time in the outdoors is a cornerstone of the Girl scout leadership experience.
