About Our Council
Greater Los Angeles Scouting provides educational programs for youth and young adults that build character, citizenship, and personal fitness. Since our founding in 1915, the Greater Los Angeles Area Council has brought its purpose and values to millions of youth.
The Scouting program facilitates meaningful contact and communication between youth, parents, and other community organizations to help young people adopt strong values and life skills. Our program presents fun, engaging, and valuable experiences directed at the maturity and interests of young people at their appropriate age and ability levels.
Scouting America has more than 1 million youth members (boys and girls) nationwide between the ages of 5 and 21 and more than 628,000 volunteers in local councils throughout the United States and its territories.
