PROTECTION FOR KIDS
All volunteers must submit an application and submit to a background check. Each volunteer is also required to complete Safeguarding Youth Training. Additional policies are in place as barriers to abuse. Recent policy changes require all adults camping with Scouts to be registered with the Scouting America with valid Safeguarding Youth Training.
