Council Patch Programs
In Girl Scouts, girls develop courage, character, and self-esteem. Through council patch programs, Girl Scouts follow requirements that link them with local organizations and resources, helping them develop a lasting sense of responsibility and accountability to their communities.
Patch materials can be requested by calling us at (800) 474-1912 or emailing us at info@girlscoutcsa.org.
All patches are available for purchase in each of the three shops.
