Starting next year, the organization will be known as Scouting America.
Fact checked by Sarah Scott
Boy Scouts of America is a 114-year-old historic organization. For the first time in its long history, the group will be known by a new name: Scouting America. The reason for the change is to reflect its mission of inclusion for all young people.
The group’s name will officially change on February 8, 2025, a date that coincides with the organization’s 115th anniversary.
“While our name is new, our mission remains unchanged: we are committed to teaching young people to be Prepared. For the life,” Roger A. Crownsays the president and CEO of Scouting America in a press release. “This will be a simple but very important evolution, as we seek to ensure that everyone feels welcome in Scouting.”
