Whenever possible, Girl Scout troop meetings should take place in
safe, community settings that are accessible to all members e.g.
schools, community centers, libraries, churches/synagogues, etc. We
recognize that due to the extenuating circumstances presented by the
Covid-19 pandemic, your troop’s access to public settings may be
limited or impossible. To help support troops who wish to meet in
person, GSSNE has elected to grant temporary permission for
in-home Girl Scout meetings to those who meet the criteria.
Prior to selecting the best meeting space for your troop,
leaders should consider girls’ accessibility and allergy needs (food,
pets, etc.) to ensure the physical space can accommodate those needs
and it is free from anything that presents a hazard. Troops wishing to
meet in a home must request permission from GSSNE by submitting the
form linked below.
While we are granting this temporary
permission to troops who would like to meet, we recognize that not all
volunteers, caregivers, or girls are comfortable with meeting
currently. Individuals should decide what is best for themselves and
their families when considering whether to meet in homes or any other
in-person setting.
