Youth Leadership Training

The vision of the Boy Scouts of America is to be the nation's foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training.

We strive to fulfill the following objectives:

Offer young people responsible fun and adventure.
Instill in young people lifetime values and develop in them ethical character as expressed in the Scout Oath and Law.
Train young people in citizenship, service, and leadership.
Serve America's communities and families through a quality, values-based program.

"Training boy leaders to run their troop is the Scoutmaster's most important job."

"Train Scouts to do a job, then let them do it."

"Never do anything a boy can do."

—Robert Baden-Powell
