Silver Award Girl Scouts

NEW!! The new Silver Award Guides are here! All girls earning the Girl Scout Silver Award after September 30, 2023, must adhere to the new guidelines and report forms below. You can also find Training information at the bottom of this page.

When Girl Scout Cadettes focus on an issue they care about, learn the facts, and take action to make a difference, they gain the confidence and skills that will catapult them to lifelong success. It all adds up to the Girl Scout Silver Award—the highest honor a Cadette can achieve. Download the Silver Award guides and forms below to find out how.
