Girls Change the World, how will Girl Scouts continue to support the Mission?

The Girl Scout Mission: Building girls of Courage, Confidence, and Character, who make the world a better place.

Read here the The NY Times story about the debate going on throughout the nation and discussed at our Girl Scout National convention.  #GSC14
