Goals of Troop 827
Troop 827 is dedicated to providing a safe and fun program of service to others, leadership development, and outdoor high adventure to its youth members, based on the values contained in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Using the Patrol Method of organization, the Troop is “Scout run”, with Adult Leaders serving as mentors and advisors.
Youth Protection
The BSA provides training in Youth Protection. Troop 827 places the greatest importance on creating the healthiest environment possible for our youth members. All Troop 827 adult volunteers are required to take this training and all scout parents are asked to take this course. It covers the BSA's Youth Protection policies, types of abuse, signs of abuse, how to respond to disclosure of abuse, and proper reporting procedures. The training program does so by taking you through situations that require choices and produce consequences.
