Peer Support Through Troops and Service Units
Being part of Girl Scouts means no one has to go it alone. Whether you're a new troop leader, a seasoned volunteer, or somewhere in between, there's a strong network of support ready to help. Through peer connections in your troop and service unit, you’ll find guidance, encouragement, and a shared sense of purpose that makes the journey even more rewarding.

Service Unit Support
Service units are local, geographically defined areas with a volunteer leadership team that supports troops and girls within their community. Service Units provide an extra layer of peer support, training, and connection.
Best Practices:
- Meet your volunteer service unit manager and leadership team
- Attend monthly service unit meetings
- Participate in service unit-sponsored programs and events
- Attend service unit trainings, especially for the Fall Product and Cookie Sales!
Here is why you should contact your Service Unit Team:
- Extra Resources
- Guidance & Support in your geographical location
- Experienced former & current Troop Leaders providing knowledge for best practices
With the help of a strong Service Unit team, troop volunteers can feel more connected, confident, and ready to deliver amazing experiences for their girls.
