Boy Scouts of America’s Youth Protection Training Policies

BSA continually seeks to increase awareness of this societal problem and to create even greater barriers to abuse than already exist today in Scouting.
BSA Policy is:

• Youth Protection training is required for all BSA registered volunteers.
• Youth Protection training must be taken every two years. If a volunteer does not meet the BSA’s Youth Protection training requirement at the time of recharter, the volunteer will not be reregistered.

To find out more about the Youth Protection policies of the Boy Scouts of America and how to help Scouting keep your family safe, see the Parent’s Guide in any of the Cub Scouting or Boy Scouting handbooks, or go to www.scouting.org/Training/YouthProtection.aspx.

This is great training for any Scout Parent to take online at: www.myscouting.org. You will need to sign up as a new or retuning member, but you will not need your Member ID to take these training courses:

• This is Scouting (a terrific introduction to the entire Boy Scout program)
• Youth Protection Training (a course that talks about how to keep our scouts safe as they participate in scouting activities)
