Take part in an inspiring morning of creativity, conversation, and civic empowerment led by Dr. Brittany Keegan - a long-time Girl Scout and leader, as well as the Assistant Professor & Director of Research Promotion and Engagement at the Wilder School of Government and Public Affairs at the Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. Together, we will dive into how state government works, explore democracy as a value rooted in justice, freedom, and inclusion, hear about opportunities to get involved in local government, reflect on issues important to you and create an art piece to express your values, and learm how to speak with policymakers.
Please note: This is not a drop-off event. Troops should plan to have enough adults to meet the girl-to-adult ratio outlined in the program guide, and any individual girl must have a registered adult on-site. All girl and adult attendees must be current members of Girl Scouts. To ensure the safety of all Girl Scouts, adults attending events must have a current Girl Scout membership and background check on file. If you need to register an additional adult or have any questions about your membership status or background check, contact gshelper@comgirlscouts.org
