"r/girlscouts January 2024 - GSUSA Issues"

This podcast episode discusses widespread dissatisfaction among Girl Scout volunteers and parents regarding the Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) national organization. Key complaints center on a poorly functioning website and IT infrastructure, leading to significant logistical problems. The episode also highlights a perceived disconnect between executive compensation and the lack of support provided to local troops, resulting in volunteer burnout and financial strain. This dissatisfaction, expressed largely through online forums, reveals a growing crisis of confidence in GSUSA's leadership and priorities. The podcast concludes by suggesting that this collective anger could potentially spark positive change within the organization.
