Where did Juliette Gordon Low live growing up?

The Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace is a national Girl Scout center located in Savannah, Georgia and is the home where Juliette Low was born. Girl Scout troops travel to the Birthplace and participate in fun programs and learn about Juliette. The house was built for Savannah's mayor, James Moore Wayne in 1818. The Gordon family bought the house in 1831. Because of this, the house is known as "The Wayne Gordon House". In 1942 the house was made into apartments. In 1953, the house was purchased by the Girl Scouts of the USA, restored, and opened to the public in 1956.


Did Juliette Gordon Low speak American Sign language?

No, Juliette Gordon Low was not known to have ever learned or spoken sign language. Due to the fact that she was not completely deaf and that her hearing loss occurred later in life, Juliette probably did not learn sign language. In fact, there are stories about how she used her hearing loss to get people to do things she asked them to do. If they tried to tell her "no" she would just go on talking as if she had not heard them. Also keep in mind that there was a lot of stigma about sign languages prior to the 1960s.


How is Juliette Gordon Low different from other Scout founders?

Every person is different from other people. That's something Juliette would have said herself! Juliette is different from other founders from her day because she is female. She is different because she had hearing problems. Juliette wanted girls to have the chance to learn skills which would prepare them for lives as housewives and as professional women outside the home which is why she brought the Girl Guide Movement to the United States. Juliette felt that she was not well-prepared for the world she found herself in and wanted young women to be better prepared to be active citizens and to deal with whatever challenges life brought them.


Did Juliette Gordon Low found Girl Scouts because girls weren't allowed in Boy Scouts?

The founder of the World Scouting Movement, Lord Baden-Powell, after starting the Boys Scouts, recognized a need for a similar girl's organization and so enlisted his sister, Agnes, to found the Girl Guides. At that time it would not have been seen as proper to have a co-ed organization. When Juliette Gordon Low met Lord Baden-Powell she became very interested in his efforts and began to volunteer with the Girl Guides, even starting troops near her home in Scotland and in London, England. Because Juliette felt that girls needed a place where young women could learn self reliance and resourcefulness, she returned to her home in Savannah, Georgia and founded Girl Scouts of the USA.
