Girl Scouts, Patriots' Trail Council: Religious Recognitions in Girl Scouting

Religious Recognitions have been developed nationally by individual religious groups so that a girl might learn more about her faith and become a stronger member of her religious group. A girl works with her family and religious leaders to complete the requirements for these recognitions.

For information on these recognitions, write to the address indicated or speak with your clergy. You can also contact:
