Your Support Team<br />

A team <strong>of</strong> volunteers and sta� provides you with local support, learning opportunities, and advice. As a volunteer, you will have<br />

the most contact with your local <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong> service unit support team, made up <strong>of</strong> experienced volunteers in your geographic area.<br />

Never hesitate to contact them, because your support team will guide and assist you in all things relating to <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong>ing. If you<br />

have questions about the <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong> program, working with girls, resources for delivering the National Program Portfolio (National<br />

Leadership Journeys and The <strong>Girl</strong>’s Guide to <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong>ing), or participating in the <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong> Cookie Program and Chocolates and<br />

Magazines Program, plan to attend service unit meetings and events, or ask your service unit team at any time for answers, ideas<br />

and ongoing support.<br />

Volunteer Helpline & Resources<br />

When you need <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong> “customer service” support and advice and aren’t sure who to<br />

call – call the Helpline! A Helpline Advisor will either answer your questions himself/herself<br />

or direct you to a resource or the sta� person who can provide the assistance you need.<br />

The Helpline doesn’t replace training, service unit meetings, your service unit team or the<br />

website, but is available for tips, guidance, resource ideas and those times when you aren’t<br />

sure who to call �rst. The Helpline is sta�ed Monday-Friday from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.; call<br />

770-702-9411 or toll-free at 1-800-771-4046, ext. 9411, or e-mail Helpline@gsgatl.<br />

org. After hours, you can leave a message and you will be contacted the next<br />

business day.<br />

Resource <strong>Centers</strong> are your <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong> libraries: the Mableton <strong>Service</strong> Center and the Dalton and Gri�n retail and meeting centers have<br />

a resource room where volunteers may check out books, videos, activity kits, �ags, posters and other materials whenever the center<br />

is open. Stop in to see what is available.<br />

<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong> Program Evaluations<br />

<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scout</strong>s strives to build girls <strong>of</strong> courage,<br />

con�dence and character who make the<br />

world a better place. That is true for our girls<br />

and also true for GSGATL and our national<br />

organization. To help measure the quality<br />

and impact <strong>of</strong> our programs and discover<br />

areas for improvement, you and your girls<br />

may be asked periodically to respond to<br />

surveys, participate in discussion groups, or<br />

serve on special committees. Our members<br />

are our greatest resource and your honest<br />

opinions help us grow stronger year by year.<br />

GSGATL conducts research and evaluation in<br />

many areas including:<br />
