The Girl Scout program encourages girls to 'discover' their values and go forward in life to make a difference. The notion of set standards doesn't seem to appear in the guidelines. The Girl Scout local committees choose leaders, and do not allow for church-sponsored, autonomous leadership.
The Boy Scouts include a wide range of denominations, with specific recognition of their beliefs. They also allow churches to choose their own leaders. When the Boy Scout program was first introduced here nearly a century ago, the LDS hierarchy looked it over and embraced it as being perfectly in tune with the Priesthood and Young Men's needs.
