A Statement from Scouting America
The Boy Scouts of America promotes a culture where each youth, volunteer, and employee feels a sense of belonging and builds communities where every person feels respected and valued. Leading by example and encouraging each other to live by the values of the Scout Oath and Law, we welcome families of all backgrounds to help prepare young people to serve as successful members and leaders of our nation’s increasingly diverse communities.
At Mobile Area Council we believe our membership should reflect and serve an increasingly diverse population.
