Project Overview

Scout Reach is responding to the increased negative mental and physical health outcomes resulting from the closing of afterschool programs and summer activities due to schools closing during the pandemic. This program will provide opportunities for Las Vegas children in low neighborhoods to give them the total Scouting experience and teach them life skills (ie: cooking and first aid) to which they may not otherwise have access. ScoutReach is expected to serve over 1,200 underprivileged and multi-cultural youth through the creation of 30 new Scout units over the next two years.
