St. George Adult Recognition (NCCS/BSA)
The St.

that is awarded at the diocesan level. Scouters are nominated by
their peers and a committee is formed to assess the merits of those nominated.
The number of St. George Recognitions a diocese committee can award each
year is limited to a formula based on the number of Catholic units in
the diocese. recipients of the St. George Recognition are eligible
to also receive the BSA Adult Religious knot.
The national requirements for the St. George Adult Recognition can be
found on the NCCS website.

Elizabeth Ann Seton recognition was inaugurated in 1980 to recognize
the meritorious contributions of adults who serve Catholic youth through
Girl Scouts and Camp Fire. This medal affirms the work of those who help
youth develop their spiritual lives within the context of these organizations.
It will ordinarily be received before the St. Anne Medal is earned, but
is not a requirement for receiving the St. Anne Medal.

Anne Medal is the highest national recognition for adults who serve
