Quick Facts
Youth Protection in Scouting

• The Youth Protection Program of the Boy Scout of America identifies and seeks to protect against three types of abuse of our youth: physical abuse, sexual abuse, and emotional abuse.
• Emotional Abuse can be just as damaging to our youth as sexual or physical abuse.
• The BSA materials on emotional abuse are not as well developed as the materials for the other two types of prohibited abuses, most likely because emotional abuse may be more difficult to detect and adults can hide it quite easily through dishonesty and attacks against the abused youth's character or behavior.
• The BSA needs to further develop the materials available on Emotional Abuse - both how to identify the signs of emotional abuse and how to deal with the situation if signs are identified.
• The Eagle4Justice recommends that the BSA implement a program requiring all Adult Leaders to be Courteous and Kind to all Scouts all the time, with training required.
