Our latest blog post from Carrie Leljedal. As New York awaits action from Governor Kathy Hochul on the Medical Aid in Dying Act, this piece invites us to look beyond fear and misinformation and focus on what truly matters: honoring a dying person’s choice.

This is about compassion, autonomy, and dignity at the end of life. Read and reflect.

🌟💚✨ Calling all Girl Scout councils and troop leaders! The Age & Youth in Action patch—created by Gray Panthers NYC and the Girl Scouts of Greater New York—empowers Scouts to build intergenerational connections that strengthen their communities.

From interviewing elders to partnering with senior centers to leading projects that bridge generations, Scouts learn what it means to create a kinder, more just world together.

Now we’re taking this movement nationwide—and we want your troop to be part of it.

🙋‍♀️ Interested in bringing this patch to your state? Learn more: https://www.graypanthersnyc.org/post/let-s-get-the-age-youth-in-action-patch-in-every-state

Let’s make Age & Youth in Action a badge of honor for Scouts across the country. 🌎💛
Learn more about the project at the link above—and join us in growing this intergenerational movement, one troop at a time.
