The Girl Scout challenge program is a youth development program based on a “challenge of choice” philosophy. Several different volunteer positions are available in the Girl Scout challenge program:

Men, women and teens from all walks of life choose to become challenge volunteers for Girl Scouts. Each volunteer position requires specific training, annual updates or skills validations, and a minimum service commitment. Challenge volunteers are a committed team of caring adults and teens who participate actively in the program throughout the year. Together, we share a common bond of helping girls grow strong through age-appropriate outdoor adventures.
