About
GIRL SCOUTS VIRGINIA SKYLINE COUNCIL USES THE GSUSA NATIONAL PROGRAM PORTFOLIO MODEL TO DELIVER ALL GIRL PROGRAMMING. COMPLEMENTED BY THE GIRL SCOUT COOKIE PROGRAM, GIRL SCOUT TRAVEL AND GIRL SCOUT AWARDS, THE NATIONAL PROGRAM PORTFOLIO IS DESIGNED TO HELP GIRLS DEVELOP AS LEADERS AND BUILD CONFIDENCE BY LEARNING NEW SKILLS.THE GIRL SCOUT LEADERSHIP EXPERIENCE IS ALSO AT THE FOREFRONT OF ALL OUR PROGRAMMING HERE AT GSVSC. WE HAVE IDENTIFIED THREE KEYS TO LEADERSHIP: GIRLS DISCOVER THEMSELVES AND THEIR VALUES; CONNECT WITH OTHERS; AND TAKE ACTION TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE. AT GIRL SCOUTS, EVERYTHING CENTERS ON THE GIRL: ACTIVITIES ARE GIRL-LED, WHICH GIVES GIRLS THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN BY DOING IN A COOPERATIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT.EVERY YEAR GSVSC PROVIDES DAY CAMPS, RESIDENT CAMPS, AND WEEKEND CAMPS TO PROVIDE A CAMPING EXPERIENCE TO ALL AGE LEVEL GIRLS. HIGH ADVENTURE PROGRAMS ARE OFFERED FOR GIRLS 11-17. LOCAL, STATE, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL TRIPS ARE CREATED FOR OUR MEMBERSHIP TO ENHANCE THE GIRL SCOUT EXPERIENCE. EVENTS ARE PLANNED AND HELD ON ALL LEVELS FROM TROOP EVENTS TO COUNCIL WIDE EVENTS. GSVSC COLLABORATES WITH HUNDREDS OF NON-PROFITS, CORPORATIONS, EDUCATIONAL INTUITIONS AND LOCAL BUSINESS TO INCREASE THE RESOURCES WE CAN PROVIDE OUR MEMBERSHIP AND KEEP COSTS LOW. LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT COURSES FOR OLDER GIRLS CONSIST OF, COUNSELOR IN TRAINING PROGRAMS, PROGRAM AIDE COURSES AND GOLD AND SILVER AWARD PROJECTS.BECAUSE ALL GIRLS, EVERYWHERE, CAN BENEFIT FROM BEING A GIRL SCOUT, BUT MAY FACE BARRIERS TO PARTICIPATION, ESPECIALLY IN DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES, WE HAVE DEVELOPED THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAM. WE HAVE ACTIVE COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAMS IN CHARLOTTESVILLE, STAUNTON, ROANOKE, LYNCHBURG & MARTINSVILLE. OUTREACH IMPROVES THE LIVES OF AT-RISK GIRLS BY BUILDING INTERNAL ASSETS INCLUDING: A BELIEF IN THE IMPORTANCE OF CARING AND HELPING OTHER PEOPLE; A BELIEF IN THE IMPORTANCE OF EQUALITY AND SOCIAL JUSTICE; INTEGRITY; HONESTY; A SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY; PLANNING AND DECISION-MAKING SKILLS; INTERPERSONAL SKILLS; KNOWLEDGE OF AND COMFORT WITH PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT CULTURAL BACKGROUNDS; SKILLS FOR RESISTING NEGATIVE PEER PRESSURE AND DANGEROUS SITUATIONS; CONFLICT RESOLUTION SKILLS; A SENSE OF PERSONAL POWER; HIGH SELF-ESTEEM; A SENSE OF PURPOSE, AND, A POSITIVE VIEW OF THEIR PERSONAL FUTURE.
