The National Catholic Committee for Girl Scouts and Camp Fire is member of the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry. The NCCGSCF promotes collaboration with Girl Scouts USA and Camp Fire USA to help young people explore and become more involved with their Catholic faith as part of the spiritual growth encouraged by these youth organizations.
The NCCGSCF administers the Catholic Youth Recognition Program, which provides age-appropriate activities that support and complement catechetical efforts of parents, parishes and schools.
As expressed on the NFCYM website:
Today, when youth ministers and Girl Scout or Camp Fire leaders get together, they share resources and learn from one another. This positive, cooperative relationship enables these adults to effectively serve Catholic young people. Partnerships include work on service projects, retreats, program activities, and camping to name a few.
