Older Girls Advisory Board Application

The Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta organization stands with those who insist on inclusivity, diversity and equity. GSGATL is a community where intolerance of any kind is unacceptable and the association will not allow it to prevail within any level of the community. It's time to be uncomfortable and have difficult conversations.

If you have a passion to create sustained change within the GSGATL community and you are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive GSGATL culture, consider applying for the Older Girls Advisory Board. As an OGAB board member you will directly support YOUR Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta council to create a culture of inclusivity that promotes diversity, belonging, and engagement.
