A Juliette Girl Scout is an individually registered girl who participates in the Girl Scout program but is not affiliated with a troop. In today’s society, when there are so many opportunities for girls to get involved in activities, it is becoming increasingly harder to find time for everything.
For girls that do not want to join a troop, or want to start immediately but cannot find a troop available at times that work for her, participating individually is a wonderful solution.
Girls registered as a Juliette are afforded the same opportunities as girls in troops. As Juliette Girl Scouts they are able to pick and choose the ways they want to participate.
