Liability in California Girl Scouts Sexual Abuse Cases
Liability for Girl Scouts sexual abuse cases can fall onto multiple parties. This could include the perpetrator of the abuse as well as the entire Girl Scouts of America organization, particularly if it is shown that the organization reasonably could have taken steps to prevent the abuse from occurring.
According to data available from the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), approximately one out of every five girls in the United States is sexually abused before the age of 18. Within the Girl Scouts organization, this type of sexual abuse can occur at various locations, including the following:
- Overnight sanctioned scouting events
- Sanctioned or unsanctioned sleepovers
- Other Girl Scout-related events
