The World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM), of which Scouting America is a member, is divided into six regions: Africa, Arab, Asia-Pacific, Eurasia, Europe, and Interamerica.
If you’re moving or live outside of the United States, you can continue to be a member of Scouting America through the three Scouting America councils providing service to Scouting America members participating in Scouting America Scouting programs outside of the U.S.
See the map below for the service areas of these councils along with their contact information.
