Scouting does build character - we can prove it!
We've always thought that Scouting is good for our children's character development and now there's a study to prove it! A published study by Dr. Richard M. Lerner and Tufts University, funded by the John Templeton Foundation followed 1800 Scouts and 400 non-Scouts over more than 2 years and studied their character development.
