Welcome to the Catholic Committee on Scouting for the Diocese of San Diego! As a member of the National Catholic Committee on Scouting, we exist is to give guidance and leadership in the spiritual development of all Catholic Scouts and Scouters in our diocese. Our committee is made up of volunteer scouters and clergy who support  Scouting as a youth ministry of the Catholic Church, and we both invite and encourage your membership and support!

​Each year, the volunteers of CCS support the Catholic religious emblems programs of the Boy Scouts of America, for scouts of all ages. We also sponsor a variety of other activities that allow our scouts to interact and grow spiritually as a group, including retreats, hikes, merit badge days, and more!
