DO NOT USE : Scouts BSA Troop 1910, Keller, TX

The BSA has announced bold, wide-ranging updates to its Youth Protection program as part of an ongoing effort to protect young people from child abuse. This starts with an enhanced online Youth Protection training course ("YPT2") that all volunteers must complete . Even those Scout leaders who took the previous version of Youth Protection training must log into My.Scouting.org and complete the updated Youth Protection course. Who needs to take YPT2?  Anyone registered in any volunteer capacity with the BSA All Assistant Scoutmasters All Committee Members Plus, anyone who plans to attend a troop function or drive Scouts to and from Scout events.  You do NOT have to be a registered leader to take Youth Protection Training.  In fact, the more of our Troop families that take it, the more protected ALL of our Scouts are!

At the same time that BSA is requiring all Scouters to take the new Youth Protection course in order to have a current YPT certification, our Chartering Organization, Keller United Methodist Church, is requiring all adults who work with youth to renew their Safe Sanctuary certification. Adult leaders who are Safe Sanctuary certified will be receiving letters from Keller United Methodist Church concerning the upcoming global Safe Sanctuary renewal. As part of this renewal, all Safe Sanctuary volunteers will be required to do a new background check, and are being asked to pay the $15 fee to process the background check.
