This is a list of all the in-progress, delayed, and complete Polaris Projects. These links are to SharePoint folders that require a Scouting.org SSO to access. If you are a volunteer and want access to these files, please ask your Scouting professional to share the information with you.
We have made this a public webpage so anyone in the BSA can see all the projects. This is a great place to come and explore when you are trying to resolve an issue. If someone else has done something similar, you can borrow from them and personalize it. This page is meant to improve transparency and organizational efficiency.
If you have any questions about the Polaris Projects, or the Polaris Method, please email [email protected]
for more information.
