Juliette Girl Scouts are registered girl members, in grades K-12, who
are busy, independent, self-confident girls and young women who want
to be a part of something larger – Girl Scouts! Meeting in troops is
one way to be part of the Girl Scout experience, but when a girl
becomes too busy with extracurricular activities or sports, becoming a
Juliette will allow her to continue her Girl Scout experience on an
individual basis.
As a Juliette, a girl won’t attend troop meetings; instead, she will
work on Girl Scout programs with the guidance of a caregiver or
another adult mentor. She decides what activities to participate in
and which earned recognitions/ awards she wishes to complete. A
Juliette may also attend community and council events.
Why Should I Become a Juliette?
There are many advantages
to participating in Girl Scouts as a Juliette:
- Gain leadership experience.
- Have the opportunity to
participate in all Girl Scout activities individually, so they can
tailor their experience.
- Create a well-rounded Girl Scout
experience by completing the planning guide for the grade-level, on
their own time.
- Serve the community through individual
community service projects
What Can a Juliette Do?
Juliette Girl Scouts can do
anything Girl Scouts in a troop can do. Juliettes learn to Discover,
Connect, and Take Action when they:
Complete Girl Scout Journeys + Badges
Girls can choose
from three different Journey books at each program grade level.
Journeys guide girls towards becoming a leader in their community.
Juliettes can also earn badges, which include a variety of
skill-building activities, many of which complement the Journeys.
Attend Girl Scout Events + Activities
Juliettes can meet
other girls in their area while completing Journeys, earning badges,
or learning more about the outdoors at council-sponsored
events. Communities also offer many events and service
opportunities, which are great for Juliettes to meet other Girl Scouts
in their area.
Help Others Through Community Service
Part of the Girl
Scout Law is to “make the world a better place.” Juliettes work on
their own or with their Girl Scout community to carry out this Girl
Scout tradition. Juliettes can also pass along what they’ve learned,
gain leadership skills, and help younger Girl Scouts at troop
meetings, events, camp, and more.
Participate in the Girl Scout Cookie and Fall Product
Programs
Juliettes can fund their Girl Scout activities
while learning great business skills including goal setting, decision
making, money management, people skills, and business ethics.
Earn Girl Scouting’s Highest Awards
The Gold,
Silver, and Bronze Awards are the highest awards in Girl
Scouting. Juliettes can earn these awards by leading a take-action
project to improve their local community
Travel with Girl Scout destinations
Juliettes can
experience leadership opportunities and cross-cultural understanding
through regional, national, and international travel.
