Girl Scout Ambassadors Maria Burritt and Isabel Silva, along with Girl Scout staff, met with Rep. Susan Davis (53rd District) in November 2019 to talk about the importance of civics education and to share civic engagement opportunities they have experienced through Girl Scouts. Among their many experiences, Maria and Isabel have both explored issues important to women and girls and honed their decision making skills with Girl Scouts’ Global Arms of Advocacy and Girl Advisory Board.
