Agency Cooperation Community Resources Elementary Secondary Education Females Nonprofit Organizations Organizational Objectives Outreach Programs Program Content Program Development Rural Areas Rural Education Rural Youth Values Youth Clubs Youth Opportunities With much to offer rural girls as well as much to learn from them, Girl Scouting is trying to reach more girls and adults in rural areas. The challenges include economic setbacks for farming, unemployment, isolated populations, and changing rural culture. Along with the challenges are the many resources of rural areas and the congruence between Girl Scout beliefs and principles and the outlooks of persons in rural areas. To expand rural Girl Scouting it has been helpful to recruit and train indigenous leadership and to establish support systems to meet local needs. The variety of innovative Girl Scout models for rural areas has included establishment of consolidated schools committees, community troop committees, hot line leaders, neighborhood learning centers, and library resource centers. Alternative models focus on meeting patterns, including designs for Girl Scout range/farm troops and Girl Scout troops where the program is delivered through the mail. Programs for rural areas include those focused on health and safety, the out-of-doors, and opportunities for the rural girl within and beyond her local area. Girl Scouting is committed to addressing the needs of rural girls and to collaboration with related groups such as the Rural Education Association. (JHZ)
