Boy Scouts Of America To Change Name To Scouting America To Be More Inclusive by vozkined: 5:55am On May 09 |
Woke agenda as Boy Scouts of America to changes name to Scouting America to include transgender and the lgbtq community For the first time in its 114-year history, Boy Scouts of America is changing its name to be more inclusive.Boy Scouts of America, which has its national headquarters in Irving, Texas, announced Tuesday that it plans to change its name to Scouting America. In a news release, the scouting organization explained the rebrand reflects the "ongoing commitment to welcome every youth and family in America to experience the benefits of Scouting."In the next 100 years, we want any youth in America to feel very, very welcome to come into our programs,” said Roger Krone, who took over last fall as president and chief executive officer. The name change will go into effect Feb. 8, 2025, on the organization's 115th anniversary. Does Boy Scouts allow girls? Yes. In recent years, Boy Scouts has welcomed girls as well as LGBTQ+ youth and leaders. LGBTQ+ youth were allowed to join 2013, with a ban on LGBTQ+ leaders ending in 2015. Then in 2017, Boy Scouts announced that girls would be accepted into Cub Scouts the following year and into a separate Scouts division in 2019. In 2021, the first group of nearly 1,000 girls and young women around the country achieved the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout. The changes didn't come without pushback, however. In 2018, the Girl Scouts of the United States of America filed a trademark infringement lawsuit. Girl Scouts feared the new language would cause confusion and further marginalize the group. https://www.madfind.com.ng/2024/05/boy-scouts-of-america-to-change-name-to.html
