Who we are
The Narragansett Council’s Scouting for All Abilities Committee is dedicated to delivering one of the nation’s leading inclusive Scouting programs.
Our mission is to ensure that every youth—regardless of ability—has access to a meaningful, high-quality Scouting experience.
What we focus on
Three areas guide everything the committee does.
Awareness and inclusion
We encourage every Scouting unit to recognize and welcome youth with diverse abilities.
Support for leaders, units and families
We share guidance, tools and resources that help build inclusive groups where every Scout can thrive.
Education and training
We connect leaders with up-to-date information and learning opportunities so they can better support all Scouts.
Our goal is simple
Every individual can take part in the positive, values-driven Scouting America program to the fullest extent of their abilities.
