Boy Scouts of America is officially updating its name in an effort to be more inclusive. Starting on Feb. 8, 2025, on their 115th anniversary, the organization will become Scouting America.
After more than 100 years, the Boy Scouts of America have announced that it is changing a century of tradition by not only allowing girls to join but also changing its program's name.
After lengthy and wrenching debate, local leaders of the Boy Scouts of America have voted to open their ranks to openly gay boys for the first time, but heated reactions from the left and right made clear that the BSA's controversies are far from over.
