Scouts BSA Linked troops best practice webinar September 17, 2022

In February 2019 the BSA launched Scouts BSA and invited girls to form and join troops across the country.  Since creating the linked troop model, we have talked to units across the country and listened as they have shared what is working and where there may be challenges. As a movement—BSA remains committed to the linked troop model which allows a chartering organization to link two separate units, one serving boys and one serving girls, via a shared troop committee. This webinar was conducted to provide additional clarity on the policy and best practices for units linked by a shared troop committee.
