[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Such a good question -- I don't have that.  There is a BSA person that posts FREQUENTLY in posts involving Scouts.  If you post on the more general activities forum, you may catch his eye and he may have resources.

I've done the GS training, and it includes this, but it's not so great that I would recommend it. I think this stuff is really hard, and it would be great for both scouting organizations to hire a consultant that could develop that sort of practical training advice.[/quote]

I'm going through GS training to become a troop leader now since our main leader is moving. Was there a special module in gslearn? Maybe I haven't gotten to it yet. There was a pretty basic one about inclusive language and inclusive programming, and some of the lessons had examples of working with children with disabilities, but not much so far that I feel would equip someone someone to effectively engage with a kid with ADHD, for instance. I think this would be really useful, however at the same time the training is already pretty long and it's not like there is a simple answer that would be one size fits all.

Great question, look forward to other answers.[/quote]
