For 114 Years, Helping Girls Be Who They Want to Be
For more than a century, Girl Scouts of Connecticut (GSOFCT) has helped girls grow into courageous, confident, and character-driven individuals, who make the world a better place. Our council serves over 15,000 youth members across communities in Connecticut, supported by 7,000 adult volunteers — many of whom are former Girl Scouts — who want to give the same opportunities and experiences they once had.
We empower girls to discover their strengths, follow their passions, and make a difference in the world. Through hands-on experiences in STEM, life skills, the outdoors, and entrepreneurship, participants build confidence, resilience, and develop skills to shape their own future. Along the way, they form amazing friendships and lifelong support networks.
Our promise is simple:
By living the Girl Scout Law, every participant learns to be honest, fair, courageous, kind, and responsible — laying the foundation to create positive change in their communities and their own lives.

Hands-On Experiences That Build Skills and Confidence
From science experiments to outdoor adventures and entrepreneurship projects, Girl Scouts learn by doing — gaining practical skills, teamwork, and confidence. Every activity is designed to help girls discover their inner power, explore new interests, and grow into the person they want to be.
Through Girl Scouts, participants gain more than skills — they develop the courage and confidence to shape their own future while making a real impact in their communities.
