Religious emblems, activities, awards and training.
As of July 1, 2020, Boy Scout (BSA) abuse prevention training will no longer be accepted as an alternative way to meet the archdiocesan requirement of attendance at a live safe environment education session. This means that any employee or volunteer in the parish/school that has previously met this requirement through BSA must attend a live safe environment training in our archdiocese to continue volunteering/working at the parish. Questions? Please contact your parish or school if you are unsure of what requirements you need to meet.

In light of the current coronavirus situation, the Celebration of Catholic Scouting is canceled. In the meantime, we pray for the health and well-being of all our scouting families and for people everywhere during these challenging times.
Fees will be refunded to any families that have already registered for the event. Adult awardees and Scouts who earned religious emblems will be invited to next year’s Celebration and recognized then.
