Explore What's Next
Girl Scouts are always exploring what’s next—and so are we.
We're entering the next chapter by building on what your Girl Scout already loves! Guided by actual experiences of Girl Scouts, families, and volunteers, as well as ongoing research, we've created more opportunities for your Girl Scout to explore and discover—while making it easier than ever for volunteers to guide the adventure. It's still the same Girl Scouts you know, growing right alongside your Girl Scout.
New Ways to Let Curiosity Lead the Way
Our evolution started with Leadership Awards—now we’re introducing new themes to further spark Girl Scouts’ curiosity. Check out our program charts to discover patches, badges, and awards by theme.

The badges, awards, patches, and hands-on adventures Girl Scouts love aren’t going anywhere. Beginning in spring 2027, we’ll launch the first wave of new and updated programs, along with the new Program Library, which will make it easier to discover everything Girl Scouts has to offer!
This is the beginning of a multiyear evolution that blends Girl Scouts’ favorite experiences and activities with exciting new ones. Additional updates are planned for 2028 and beyond!
