NEW Youth YPT Program

All, With the NEW YPT program for Scouts BSA and Venturing that replaces A Time to Tell and Personal Safety Awareness. I would like to ask what is the timeline to get this published into Scoutbook for the Scout and Star Ranks and for the Venturing Program?

Scouts BSA Link: https://www.scouting.org/training/youth-protection/scouts-bsa/

Venturing Link: https://www.scouting.org/training/youth-protection/venturing/

I would also request this footnote be added to both the Scout and Star Ranks:

This Personal Safety Awareness may be used in place of the Cyber Chip requirement for the Scout and Star rank. If used in place of the Cyber Chip requirement for a rank, Scouts are encouraged to inform their Parent or Guardian and unit leader of the replacement prior to viewing the videos.

Give it some time. We just found out about it this week too. It will get added.

Thanks, I just wanted to make someone aware.

So do the scouts watch the four videos and the videos on sexual abuse, bullying, etc

That is my take and that is what I will be doing with my Scouts. I made the suggestion to my Scoutmaster to have a BBQ and this is the program. Divide the Scouts 10-13 and 14-18 into two groups based on age and with parents present do this program.

thank even
That’s what I was thinking. I sent an email to my SPL and ASPL and their parents last night as they need this for their Star rank.
