So I already talked about Nagivators U.S.A but did you know about Spiral Scouts Internacional?

It's an equaly inclusive Scouting organisation created with Wicca roots but you don't have to be Wicca to Join.

It's Open to everybody of every gender and orietation.

It teaches kids and young adults about the inportance of nature and how to take care of it and protect it, along with with respect for all human life, and it's diversity, charity and how to grow and cherish relationships with others around them.

Their age groups are called shards that I know of and they start at 3-5 years old and continue until atleast 16-18, if you want to Join at a older age you can also become a Volunter and or start your own group, Their groups are called Circles but you can also do it just you and your family i which case it would be a heart.

DON'T PUT YOUR BOY IN BOY SCOUTS!!!

It's not your only option.

Nagivators is a Scouting organisation That was created so that non Christians and queer kids could Scout, it's whole mission is too get rid of ignorance and prejudice trough it's movement.

Anibody of any religion, race, orentation, creed and disabilty can Join.

Boy Scouts has changed yes but it has a homophobic and problematic history and it was not made with the mission to end ignorance and prejudice in mind so this is your better option.

If You happend to live in the U.S.A specialy

Because in that case all you need to start your own group is go to their oficial page and read the instructions or look for one near You .

further more I belive is better than Girl scouts because even tho they were never queer phobic in anyway it's still exclusive to girls .

So what happend's when your daugther wants to Scout whit her male friends but you don't want to make a a boy Scouts troop?

What happend's if your child is nonbinary and wants to Scout?

What happend's if you have a cisgender boy and he wants to Scout but you don't want to put him in boy Scouts and can't put him in girl Scouts because he is a boy?

Answer: put them in Navigators by eather looking for a group near You or strarting your own group.

It's wort mentioning there is a religios group also called Navigators but it has nothing to do With the Scouting organisation so when you look it up you have to specify" Navigators Scouting organisation"

You could also Google " Inclusive Scouting organisations"

When Elijah was born I knew right away I would never put him into Boy Scouts. The Boy Scouts were not inclusive, and for all I knew Elijah might be gay. More than that, I didn’t want to support an organization that was bigoted towards LGBTQI people. It just doesn’t match up with our family values. Even now that they have made the move to allow gay scouts in the program, I am still offended at…

SpiralScouts is based on the idea of children and parents of both genders working together. Our program encourages girls and boys to learn, play, and work together under the direction of leaders of both genders as a way of showing by example that both men and women are capable and cooperative leaders.

SpiralScouts thrives on child-directed activities based on a globally-oriented philosophy of religious tolerance and interfaith cooperation, personal responsibility, and ecological education and conservation, in order to help our children learn to grow into strong, competent members of society and citizens of the world. In order to foster these skills, we believe that the children should make as many of the decisions as possible when it comes to the activities they do and how SpiralScouts works for them. Adult leaders should facilitate this process, not dictate it.

"As a Navigator I promise to do my best to create a world free of prejudice and ignorance. To treat people of every race, creed, lifestyle and ability with dignity and respect. To strengthen my body and improve my mind to reach my full potential. To protect our planet and preserve our freedom."

Navigators USA was founded by Boy Scout leaders upset with the prejudice against atheists and LGBT-community members.
