After years of scandal, Boy Scouts of America changes its name to Scouting America
Briefly

The Boy Scouts of America will be rebranding as Scouting America next year to reflect inclusivity and growth, following a sex-abuse scandal and bankruptcy cases.
The renaming aims to ensure all youth, including LGBTQ individuals, feel welcome in Scouting America, marking a transformation for the 114-year-old organization.
Scouting America's evolution post-bankruptcy seeks to attract more diverse youth and create a safer, more inclusive environment for learning and growth.
Historically, the Boy Scouts faced challenges with sexual abuse, keeping a secret list of accused predators dating back to 1919, highlighting a dark chapter in the organization's history.
