Mission and programs · 2024

• Traditional Scouting - In the BSA, Scouting is one movement with three main programs. Cub Scouting is the largest program, for boys and girls kindergarten to fifth grade or 5 to 11 years of age, with activities involving youth and families in home-centered activities as well as den and pack field trips, hikes, camping, and service projects. Scouts BSA is the flagship program for boys and girls ages 10 to 17, utilizing youth peer leadership in planning outdoor adventures and service projects, as well as merit badge programs for citizenship training, career exploration, and life skills development. Venturing and Sea Scouting is for young men and women ages 14 to 20, where teens lead the units in a variety of specialized adventure programs. The Order of the Arrow is the Scouting Honor Society, in which older Scouts and Venturers lead various service programs aimed at helping sustain Scouting and assist the community-at-large.

• Learning for Life/Exploring programs - Learning for Life programs help schools and workplace organizations work with youth and teens in life skills, character development, and career education, and help youth formulate positive personal values and make ethical decisions. Exploring is the workplace program which helps teens grown by introducing them to career exploration, peer leadership, and community service through one or more Explorer posts specializing in law enforcement, fire and emergency service, health careers, aviation, and other career-based specialties.

• Training programs - Provide training, administrative and other support to adult volunteers who deliver scouting programs to youth.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made
