Challenges Facing Today’s Youth
Youth today face numerous distractions and challenges that can hinder their personal growth and development. From the pressures of social media to the increasing demands of school and extracurricular activities, young people often struggle to find their path. These challenges can lead to a lack of confidence, direction, and critical life skills necessary for a successful future.
Our Commitment and Guidance
Old North State Council (ONSC), a division of the Boy Scouts of America, is here to guide and support the youth and families of the greater Greensboro area. With a strong commitment to building character and leadership, ONSC offers a structured and enriching environment where young people can thrive. Through engaging programs and dedicated mentorship, we help Scouts develop the confidence, skills, and values they need to navigate life’s challenges and achieve their full potential.
