Welcome to American Heritage Girls—a community dedicated to helping families raise Godly girls who thrive in today's culture. As a Christian parent, we know you face unique challenges as you seek to instill Biblical values in your children. It can feel overwhelming to raise children who stand firm in their faith in today's secular culture. But you don't have to do it alone.
At American Heritage Girls, we offer a safe, supportive community for girls to grow in faith and character. Our program is designed to meet your daughter where she is and provide her with a space to flourish. And as a parent, you’ll have access to resources and support to help you navigate the challenges of parenting in today’s culture. Start a Troop today!
Transform Your Community with an AHG Troop
Starting a Troop with American Heritage Girls will make a positive impact on your daughter, your family, your church or school, and your wider community. Through our balanced program, girls grow in confidence, faith, and character as they progress through the program. Troops get the chance to participate in: fun outdoor activities, service projects, badge work, girl leadership opportunities, and more (all with other like-minded girls)! There are four main requirements for starting an AHG Troop:
American Heritage Girls is designed to celebrate girlhood in every way! The ministry exists to guide a girl towards becoming a woman of integrity in her own way through exploring life skills, faith, and service. If this stirs your heart toward action, there are girls across the country waiting to experience the faith, service, and FUN that is AHG!
Every AHG Troop belongs to a local ministry organization called a Charter Organization. Charter Organizations can be churches; parochial and Christian schools; or other faith-based non-profit groups. If you have a potential Charter Organization in mind, AHG Staff and volunteers will help equip you to approach this organization and discuss the many benefits of making American Heritage Girls part of their ministry to Christian girls, families, and their community.

It starts with five dedicated volunteers committed to raising the next generation of Godly girls to charter a Troop. An AHG Troop Board consists of five adults: a Charter Representative, Troop Coordinator, Vice Coordinator, Troop Treasurer, and Troop Shepherd. AHG Staff and volunteers are excited to provide resources and direction for recruiting the right adults. Your Charter Organization Representative will provide guidance and wisdom in approving these key volunteers.
A team of dedicated coaches are here to guide you every step of the way. From the first call to starting your own Troop, we’ll walk you through the process and provide prayerful encouragement. And with 30 years of proven success, you can trust that our program works.
"American Heritage Girls gives us peace of mind; pro-girl, pro-woman, pro-life, pro-God, pro-Jesus. Walking the road less traveled & it makes all the difference. My daughter is proud to be in AHG. I love working with ladies with the same core values!"
