• Scouting Crime Prevention Patch - This program enables Boy and Girl Scouts to become actively involved in crime prevention efforts in their community. To earn the Fighting Crime Activity Patch, Scouts must participate in a gang prevention program or personal safety awareness training. They must also learn about ways to protect the elderly from fraud and share that information with a minimum of ten senior citizens in their community. Finally, they must complete a minimum of two hours of service for the elderly, disabled, or shut-in members of their community. Please contact us
