Boy Scouts of America changing its name to be more inclusive
SUMMARY: The Boy Scouts of America, now known as Scouting America, is making significant changes to focus on inclusion after a history of sexual abuse claims and declining membership. The organization has allowed gay youth, girls, and female Eagle Scouts, welcoming diversity and increasing participation. The move to accept girls strained the relationship with the Girl Scouts but was settled in court. The organization is restructuring after bankruptcy, offering a variety of activities for youth nationwide. The name change to Scouting America will officially take place in 2025, reflecting a commitment to welcoming all youth and promoting life skills and leadership development.
