Start a CCA Unit

Bring traditional Scouting, outdoor adventure, leadership, and service to boys in your church, school, or community.

1. Organize

Identify a legal entity willing to serve as the chartered organization and adults willing to learn the CCA program.

2. Train

Work with CCA on youth leadership, safety, program methods, unit administration, and the responsibilities of Rover Officers.

3. Launch

Recruit families, organize the unit, begin meetings, and build toward regular outdoor activities and service.

Choose the program that fits your members

  • Beaver Cadet colony for ages 4–6
  • Cub Cadet pack for ages 7–11
  • Boy Cadet troop for ages 12–17
  • Rover Officer crew for adults ages 18+

CCA may organize units and higher-level support structures as local participation grows.

Begin the conversation

Send your city or region, sponsoring organization, intended program, and the names of the adults who want to help.
