Youth Protection Training: The Boy Scouts of America places the greatest importance on creating the most secure environment possible for our youth members. To maintain such an environment, the BSA developed numerous procedural and leadership selection policies and provides parents and leaders with resources especially for the Cub Scout programs.

Resources for New Leaders: If you are a new leader in Cub Scouting, here are some key resources that youshould review so that you can get your den or pack up and running, right fromthe start.

Program Helps: The annual Cub Scout Program Helps is such an important resource for Cub Scout leaders that it has often been called "the foundation for successful Cub Scouting." These program helps provide a detailed, easy-to-follow program to assist leaders in planning meetings. The Cub Scout Program Helps book, containing an entire year's worth of program planning assistance, is available from your local Scout Shop. For your convenience, an individual month's or the entire year's program helps may also be downloaded as Acrobat PDF files:
