Catholic Committee on Scouting
The
Archdiocese of Portland in Oregon Catholic Committee on Scouting is a committee
affiliated with the Archdiocese of Portland Office of Youth Ministry serving
Catholic youth and their adult leaders who are affiliated with scouting in
Western Oregon. The Committee is dedicated to promoting “Duty to God” at each
level of scouting. We are affiliated with the National Catholic Committee on
Scouting® (NCCS), an advisory to the Boy Scouts of America, the
National Catholic Committee on Girl Scouts and Camp Fire, and Region (12) of the
NCCS and NFCYM.
Each
year the ACCS holds several events to promote Catholic Scouting. These
events include a Boy Scout Religious Encounter, Scouter Development, Religious
Emblems Counselor Training, a Youth Religious Emblem Recognition Ceremony,
and Adult Recognition Dinner (add or remove events as needed). We are able
to accomplish these events, because of the many dedicated leaders that
donate their time and energy to providing a quality program.
