The Volunteer in Training (VIT) Award is an exciting opportunity for older Girl Scouts to step into a meaningful leadership role and make a real impact on younger Girl Scouts.

By the end of this session, you will leave with:

  • A strong understanding of the VIT Award
  • Completed planning documents for your activities and meetings
  • Leadership tools and confidence
  • Clear next steps to finish the award with a younger Girl Scout troop

The VIT experience is all about discovering your leadership strengths, building new skills, and making a difference in the lives of younger Girl Scouts—this workshop is your first step!
