SCOUTREACH MISSION STATEMENT
To implement a comprehensive service plan to meet the needs of the diverse population by bringing Scouting and its value education to urban centers. Improve communications and understanding with those living in our inner city areas and to recruit strong adult leaders and to develop solid relationships with community organizations.

Finally, to promote the principals of character, citizenship, leadership and service to the community and chartering organizations.
