Service Delivery Task Force

Scouting America New Hampshire has initiated a strategic effort to modernize and strengthen its unit service structure in response to significant changes in membership, staffing, and volunteer capacity. The current district model—originally built to support over 600 units and 15,000 Scouts—is no longer sustainable in its legacy form. Diminished volunteer capacity, reduced staffing, and overlapping responsibilities across seven districts have created inefficiencies and service inconsistencies.

A formal committee, chaired by Patrick Grace and composed of a cross-section of experienced leaders, has been impaneled to synthesize these findings into a clear reorganization plan. With a target implementation date of January 1, 2026, the Task Force is engaging stakeholders, collecting feedback, and preparing a practical transition roadmap.
