I am a Daisy Girl Scout Leader.  My 2 Granddaughters are members of  our 
troop.  I only wish they had this on audible tape.

 Girl Scouts of Connecticut Offers Handbooks in Braille  
Beginning in 2013, Girl  Scouts of Connecticut is offering many of its 
popular National Program  Portfolio Resources (handbooks) in Braille. 
The books were made  available through a gift for printing provided to Girl 
Scouts of the USA. This  gift honors the memory of Jane O’Connor Verhage, 
who was a former Girl Scout  troop leader, Board Member, and former Director 
of Volunteers for Braille  Institute of America. Girl Scouts of Connecticut’
s Program Department  requested that this free resource be made available to 
all of Connecticut’s  membership. 
All three Leadership  Journey books are included in this collection: It’s 
Your World, Change It!  It’s Your Planet, Love It!, and It’s Your Story, 
Tell It! These  Leadership Journeys allow girls to hone their leadership skills 
while  exploring a particular topic. Each Journey has a selection of 
activities and  experiences that are tied to the 15 national outcomes of the Girl 
Scout  Leadership Experience, which helps girls discover themselves and 
their values,  connect with others to build healthy relationships, and take 
action to make  their world and community a better place. This collection 
includes both girl  books and adult guides. 
Other current Girl  Scout resources also available for Girl Scout Daisies 
(grades K-1), Brownies  (grades 2-3), Juniors (grades 4-5), Cadettes (grades 
6-8), Seniors (grades  9-10) and Ambassadors (grades 11-12) include The Girl’
s Guide to Girl  Scouting and Skill Builder sets. 
Members who wish to  borrow these resources may contact Girl Scouts of 
Connecticut’s Program  Department at 1-800-922-2770 or _program at gsofct.org_ 
(mailto:program at gsofct.org) .
