YOUTH PROTECTION

The safety of our youth is the most important thing we can do for all our cubs in Pack 357. The Scouts BSA have created a system to ensure youth safety from abuse.

Some important aspects of the system include:

• Background checks required for Adult Leaders.

• Youth Protection Training certification required for Adult Leaders.

• Youth Protection reporting procedures.

• Two deep Adult Leadership; two Adults must be present at any scouting activity.

• How To Protect Your Children From Child Abuse: A Parents Guide
