I don't know anything about being a leader . You don't have to be an expert at anything. We will train you. The only thing you need in order to lead a troop is a desire to help girls grow. Training is essential so that girls will enjoy the best possible experience in Girl Scouting.
Basic training is available in group sessions in many locations.
I can't meet at my home. You can hold a troop meeting at a church, school, recreation center, college, community room, or private home. I have other children. It's very likely one of the parents will watch your children during the troop meeting. I have limited income and cannot afford to buy Girl Scout materials.
