Researchalone.shows that women role models can greatly impact a girl’s life and her ability to develop into a leader. Role models represent and expand what is possible, they inspire girls to be more ambitious and aim higher, and they demonstrate the mindsets and behaviors of how to rise. We appreciate all our Girl Scout alum, volunteers and friends in the community, who step up to be role models for girls. Your presence as a role model is vital to helping motivate girls—no matter what career path they choose.

Where is the next generation of women leaders?
Girl Scouts has always been a place where a girl’s leadership spirit can be nurtured through unique opportunities. It has been a place where girls can experience community involvement, develop a code of personal values, and rise to the top. In study after study, Girl Scout alum say they believe Girl Scouting had a positive impact on their adult lives. They cite benefits such as the ability to work with others, building self-confidence, and learning the value of community service. These are important attributes as we continue to live in a complex time when women are juggling career and family while working to achieve personal fulfillment. As Girl Scouts, they learned to be courageous and act freely—despite risk and fear—to be, defend and expand themselves. Through Girl Scouts, they gained confidence in an all-girl setting where they learned to embrace risks and failures.
Girl Scouts! Where they’ve always been. We build leaders who blaze trails, fire our imaginations and laugh at words like “can’t” and “never.” We build inspirational leaders who are value-driven, leading from a deep sense of purpose and responsibility to create positive change. We build leaders in every career field, from engineer and educator to legislator and beyond. We’ve been building leaders for 110 years strong.
Our mission is to help build girls of courage, confidence and character, so they can make the world a better place. Today, our world needs leaders who have courage, confidence, and character. It needs leaders who possess traits and abilities such as a loving heart, faithfulness, peacefulness, patience, kindness and gentleness. Through Girl Scouting, girls can learn and practice skills that will lead them to this leadership paradigm. They build a reservoir of strength that they can draw upon throughout their lives…but they don’t do it

Scout alum who grew up in Hampton had the good fortune of being in a Girl Scout troop led by Mary Jackson, the famous NASA mathematician. She joined as a Brownie and remained a girl member throughout high school. She was the first African American Girl Scout in Virginia to serve on a Girl Scout Senior Planning Board and was among the first in the nation to attend an All-State Encampment—later referred to as National Wider Opportunities. Thanks to Mary Jackson, Janice had the training she needed to take on a wilderness backpack trip in Cody, Wyoming, and skills that continue to serve her well today!

Janice returned to Virginia and took a position with the City of Hampton, heading the city’s youth program. After retiring, she became involved in the Virginia Organizing Project and served two terms as the president before taking on a national leadership role. Also, during “retirement,” she has served as interim CEO for the Peninsula YWCA and the South Hampton YWCA. Her community involvement has included serving on Girl Scouts of the Colonial Coast (GSCCC) Board of Directors and on GSCCC’s Advocacy Committee. She has received many awards, including the Girl Scout Thanks Badge and GSCCC’s highest council award, the Dorothy Barber Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2019, Jay was recognized as a Girl Scout Famous Former by
Girl Scouts and National Aeronautics and Space Association, which we all know as NASA, has shared an incredible relationship over many years. Together, we have worked to create exciting experiences and badge activities for girls. And thanks to great program experiences, many girls have discovered their passion for STEM and have gone on to study engineering and realized their dreams of becoming scientists!

Girl Scouts of the Colonial Coast share sincere appreciation for outstanding contributuions to STEM, building opportunities for girls to seek the stars, and for taking Girl Scouting to the moon!
In 2018, Space Science badges for Girl Scout Daisies, Brownies, and Juniors, were launched thanks to support and funds from NASA’s Science Mission Directorate through a multi-party collaboration with the SETI Institute. The badges will fly on Artemis this year. Here’s the link for more information, https://www.nasa.gov/artemis-1. All of these badges encourage girl-led explorations of space science, highlight female astronomer role models, and focus on cooperative, hands-on learning by doing. Studies show that connecting young girls with positive science experiences is the first step in a life of engaging scientific explorations. Thanks to many local NASA Langley Research Center’s employees who volunteered time to offer hands-on activities at many Girl Scouts of the Colonial Coast STEM events, such as STEMImagination, girls have earned Space Science badges and other STEM related badges that have sparked their interest in STEM and opened up worlds to explore.
Girl Scouts and NASA share an important goal of increasing science interest, confidence, competence, and value among girls. From area STEM events to workshops hosted at NASA Langley Research Center where girls toured the facilities, including the famous wind tunnel, NASA has ignited the love for STEM in new generations of Girl Scouts. Many of these girls may have heard the message that science is not for them; together we can be a voice that tells them they are welcome and encouraged to reach for the
This year, Girl Scouts sponsored the “Girl Scouts to the Moon and Back” essay contest to give Girl Scouts a chance to win a Space Science badge that’s actually been to space on NASA’s Artemis I. That mission is NASA’s first step toward the goal of sending the first woman and the first person of color to the moon. Thanks to the leadership of Kimberly Brush, director of NASA Langley Office of STEM Engagement who led the effort, girls had an opportunity to be part of the Artemis mission.

Receiving the Famous Former on behalf of her mother is Ann Vaughan Hammond, who grew up in Girl Scouts and is a proud Girl Scout alum. Dorothy Vaughan was an active volunteer in both Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts with her children.
Dorothy Vaughan was an academic achiever and graduated high school as class valedictorian. She received a college scholarship and graduated cum laude with a Bachelor’s of Science degree in mathematics in 1929 from Wilberforce University, a historic Black college in Ohio. She taught high school for many years in Farmville, Virginia. During World War II, she took a position with the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics in Hampton, Virginia. This began her 28-year career as a mathematician and programmer.
She significantly contributed to the Scout Launch Vehicle Program, a particular type of rocket designed to launch small satellites into orbit around the Earth. Her mathematical and computing skills were valued. Despite her efforts, Dorothy never received another management role before she retired in 1971, but that didn’t stop this go-getter! She consistently advocated for herself and her peers and accepted any challenge that came her way. After retiring in 1971, she was asked about her experience. She said, “I changed what I could, and what I couldn’t, I

In 1958, she became the first African American female engineer at NASA. She accomplished this by receiving special permission from the City of Hampton to attend night classes at the then all-white Hampton High School. Later, she conducted tests on Project Mercury and the Project Apollo capsule and received the Apollo Team Achievement Award. In her last years at NASA, she took a demotion in order to become Langley’s Federal Women’s Program Manager, making sure that women mathematicians, scientists, and engineers of all backgrounds were treated equally and recognized for their work.
