2025-2026 Inspire Discovery

New Leadership Awards

Girl Scouts’ new Leadership Awards celebrate all the ways Girl Scouts lead—by themselves, with a team, or in their community. Whether they are leading a team project, guiding younger kids, speaking up for change, or learning to trust their instincts, these awards recognize and support the many ways leadership shows up. They’re flexible, fun, and designed to help Junior through Ambassador Girl Scouts practice leading with confidence and purpose. Visit girlscouts.org/leadershipawards to learn more and download the guides.
