Catholics Stand with Girl Scouts

Call To Action stands in solidarity with the Girl Scouts of The United States of America in the wake of their rebuke by Abp. Carlson of the Archdiocese of St. Louis. We applaud the Girl Scouts for consistently exercising values of inclusion and equality. Additionally, we support the right of women to make decisions congruent with their beliefs and God-given conscience.

The Girl Scouts are an exemplar organization that works hard to build up leadership skills for thousands of girls nationally. Their commitment to cultivating girls of character, courage and confidence in striving to make the world a better place is both crucial and inspiring.

The Call To Action community stands with the Girl Scouts and asks Catholics around the country to do the same.
