Come to Camp with us!
July 21st -July 25th 2025
Our camp will adhere to and respect GSCNC's
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) Commitment
Girl Scouts Nation's Capital is committed to building and maintaining an inclusive community that respects and supports all our members. We value the diverse backgrounds and qualities of each youth and adult member-including race; ethnicity; national origin; culture; gender identity and expression; sexual orientation; socio-economic status; age; physical, intellectual and emotional abilities; and religious and political beliefs-so that all members feel they belong. We strive to provide everyone with the opportunity to participate fully in the Girl Scout program and contribute to the Girl Scout community.
We do not have all the answers but pledge to work toward these goals as advocates and allies. We seek to address barriers that impede our members from reaching their highest potential.
Our mission is to help Girl Scouts become leaders with the courage, compassion, and confidence needed to build a more just community. We continue to commit ourselves to the values put forth in the Girl Scout Promise and Law.
This is who we are, and this is our promise to you.
