The Buffalo Diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting is a committee affiliated with the Youth Department - Diocese of Buffalo Youth Ministry office serving Boy Scouts of America, Girl Scouts USA within the 8 counties of Western New York. 

The Committee is dedicated to promoting “Duty to God” at each level of Scouting. We are affiliated with the National Catholic Committee on Scouting® (NCCS), an advisory to the Boy Scouts of America, National Catholic Committee on Girl Scouts and Camp Fire, and Region II of the National Catholic Committee on Scouting and the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry.

Each year the Diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting holds several events to promote Catholic Scouting. These events include a Scouting Religious Encounter, Scouter Development, Religious Emblems Counselor Training, a Youth Religious Emblem Recognition Ceremony, and Adult Recognition Dinner  We are able to accomplish these events, because of the many dedicated leaders that donate their time and energy to providing a quality program.
