National Delegates serve as voting members at the National Council Session (NCS), which is held every three years. As members of the National Council, National Delegates hold elections, amend the GSUSA Constitution, determine the general lines of policy for the Girl Scout Movement and program by considering and acting upon proposals directed toward fostering and improving Girl Scouts and receive and act upon reports of the National Board of Directors. National Delegates are the voice of our council membership to GSUSA and the National Board.
