gsCommunity Guidelines

Be supportive. Share generously. Be constructive. gsCommunity is a safe space. Don’t spam, promote, or troll. 

*Any member who does not follow the community guidelines will be removed from the app.

Why now?

Digital communities help achieve common goals, feel less isolated and add incredible value, especially post-pandemic. 

Why not just use Facebook?

Facebook provides quick contacts to people without the ability to form more deeper, engaging and meaningful connections. gsCommunity, with its platform dedicated to only GSNorCal members and concentrated on Girl Scout related conversations, brings together activities, members, posts, questions/polls, articles, events and private groups - all in one place. 

gsCommunity is a social networking platform created by GSNorCal volunteers for all GSNorCal members, Junior, Cadette, Senior, Ambassador and young alum Girl Scouts!
