Juliette Gordon Low: Founder of the Girl Scouts and A Deaf Champion Who Wouldn’t Hear “No”11/3/2022 Every year on October 31st, Girl Scouts across the United States commemorate their movement's Founder's Day. The date was chosen to honor Girl Scouts founder Juliette Gordon Low's birthday. Ms. Low wouldn't really accept "No" for an answer whenever confronted with negativity in her never-ending pursuit to make Girl Scouts of the USA a success, paving the way for numerous young girls to pursue and live a life of boldness, self-assurance, as well as integrity. Sign Language Use Although the Girl Scouts of the USA now offer a sign language badge, lists of badges awarded during Juliette Gordon Low's lifetime do not include one. Juliette was never known to communicate through sign language. However, the fact that she was a Deaf woman who achieved a rare level of greatness has left a profound imprint on the world. She encouraged both Deaf and hearing girls to effectively communicate by whatever means necessary to accomplish their goals. Juliette's main goal in founding the Girl Scouts movement was to empower girls of all ages, ethnicities, as well as religions to join together and develop courage, confidence, as well as character.
