Why It’s Special
The Friendship Circle grew from genuine community need: First piloted in local girls’ groups, then adapted for Girl Scout troops and parent workshops. It’s not just a curriculum, it’s a way to help girls find belonging, build confidence, and create friendships that last.
Empower the girls in your community to connect, grow, and thrive... one circle at a time.
