Girl Scout Juliettes
Juliette Girl Scouts (formerly known as iGirls) 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 there aren’t available troops in the area, a troop no longer meets, or 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 will decide what activities to participate in and which earned recognitions/awards she wishes to complete. A Juliette may also attend regional and council events, such as exclusive Juliette outings/field trips and badge opportunities, council-offered programs and more.
Why Should I Become a Juliette?
There are many
advantages to participating in Girl Scouts as a Juliette. Juliettes:
- 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 their grade-level, on their own time.
- Serve their community through individual community service projects and Take Action 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 different Journey books at every 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 can 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 earn special mentoring awards by helping
younger Girl Scouts at troop meetings, events, camp, and more.

Programs
Juliettes can fund their Girl Scout activities

making, money management, people skills, and business ethics. Learn
