Wood Badge/NYLT Financial Aid

A limited number of partial-fee financial assistance requests are available to help offset the costs of the NYLT and Wood Badge courses.  This financial assistance is granted based on need.  Financial assistance can be requested from the Leadership Training Financial Assistance Fund.  Financial assistance is awarded in amounts up to 50% of the fee.  This financial assistance cannot come in the form of a refund. 

Because these are premier leadership courses, units, chartered organizations, and a number of employers may also partially underwrite necessary fees for a Scouter to attend.  Please inquire before applying for council financial assistance.

The details will be handled in a manner that causes no embarrassment to the Scout or their family.

All Scouts who receive financial aid should help earn or provide part of the fee, in keeping with the ninth part of the Scout Law...A Scout is Thrifty.
