Most Scout groups are sponsored. Working in partnerships, Scouts Canada provides programs for community based groups to use in their work with youth. These community groups include religious institutions, service, fraternal and civic clubs, professional, business and occupational associations; military bases, public and private schools; Home & School associations and groups of citizens/parents.
The sponsor/partner is free to choose and use any or all of the programs and to receive services from Scout councils provided they accept the Mission and Principles and follow the policy of Scouting as set out in By-law, Policies & Procedures.
