Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois (GSofSI) would like to congratulate our new National Delegates!
National Delegates are elected to three-year terms and serve as their local council’s voting members on the National Council. Throughout their three-year term, they gather feedback from members of their council, learn about proposals, and act as their council’s voice on the National Council. Within their local council, Delegates then share insights and report on actions taken by the National Council.
