Live Scan Background Check

New Training and Live Scan starting 2022 for BSA

Due to AB506, a new law: All BSA Leaders and parents camping with Troop 373 need to take additional youth protection steps.

These steps will also offer extra protection to our Scouts and extra protection to the parents and leaders, that BSA Youth Protection Policy already offers.

1) Live Scan background check (the digital version of inked fingerprinting).

(Complete before April 30, 2022)

A Live Scan background check (the digital version of inked fingerprinting) is required for all volunteers and staff. Live Scan replaces previous background checks; all volunteers will have to complete this once.
