Introducing the First Series of Journeys
Brownie Quest
What are the most important keys for a Girl Scout to own? This quest, which has second- and third-graders traveling along two colorful trails—one they can enjoy on their own and one they explore with their Girl Scout group—answers that question in a very special way. Along the Quest, Girl Scout Brownies will meet three new friends and a bright and shining elf—in a brand-new Brownie story meant to inspire their own Take Action Projects.
Journey Awards
Girl Scout Brownies are invited on a search. The three keys they will uncover along their journey are the keys of the Girl Scout leadership philosophy.
Be Prepared
Through a partnership with FEMA's Citizen Corps Girl Scouts USA created the program Be Prepared. This patch program equips Girl Scouts with skills to protect their families, friends and communities when disaster strikes. The Emergency Preparedness Patch program prepares Girl Scouts to:
*Identify local risks and potential emergencies
*Connect with local community service agencies
*Understand hazards and appropriate protective actions
*Learn local alerts and warning systems
*Prepare themselves and their family
*Deal with emotional responses to an emergency
*Discover how to get trained and become involved in community emergency planning
