About Us

Girl Scouts of the USA

Founded in 1912, Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) is the preeminent leadership development organization for girls and the leading authority on their healthy development. Millions of Girl Scout alums across the country and the world have gone on to achieve incredible things and make a tremendous impact in fields ranging from public policy, medicine, journalism, and athletics to international relations, science, technology, art, and entertainment.

As a mission-driven organization, Girl Scouts of the USA champions girls as they explore their worlds, try new things, and develop the courage, confidence, and character to make the world a better place. From stargazing during a first overnight camping trip to building robots, navigating a rocky hiking trail, working together on a community project, and learning about the importance of environmental stewardship, Girl Scouts of all backgrounds and abilities can unapologetically be themselves as they rise to meet new challenges and discover the issues that matter most to them. Along the way they learn the power of friendship, connection, and teamwork.

Girl Scouts are doers, innovators, problem-solvers, creators, and dreamers, and the GSUSA team is here to center, support, and inspire them, working with 111 local councils across the country and USA Girl Scouts Overseas to deliver our life-changing Girl Scout Leadership Experience.

The Administrative Office drives enterprise reporting and process discipline across functions at Girl Scouts of the USA with the goal of increasing Movement-wide efficiency in the most cost-effective manner. Work includes driving continuous improvement with measurable outcomes for standards and procedures across vendor contracting, procurement, IT sourcing and development, and property management. Enterprise reporting will develop and share insights into metrics and KPIs across GSUSA communities and initiatives, identifying key issues, impact areas, and opportunities for prioritization alignment. The Information Technology, Properties, Procurement/Sustainability, Public Policy/Advocacy, and Cultural Assets teams within this division collaborate closely with all other Girl Scouts of the USA divisions, while also impacting quality of service delivery to council customers in support of our end girl and volunteer customers.
