The Girl Scouts organization is embroiled in a growing national controversy regarding their ties with Planned Parenthood, linking arms with those who promote and encourage abortion on demand. Many within the organization have denied a connection. However, former Girl Scouts troop leaders have admitted that they have relationships with Planned Parenthood groups across the country. This week we are joined by Patti Garibay, founder of American Heritage Girls.

The Girls Scouts and Planned Parenthood
Mariellen Rechtin and her daughter Marta had great experiences as a Girl Scout troop leader and scout. But that experience changed after Mariellen began learning of the Girl Scouts of America’s involvement with the UN Population Fund and their connections to Planned Parenthood. The feminist and liberal direction that the Girl Scouts curriculum had taken was concerning to Mariellen and several other parents. She voiced her concerns to the Girl Scout council but was ignored and asked to resign as a troop leader. As a result, Mariellen and her daughter left girl scouts.
