Our Mission

 

Welcome to the EOCS web site!

The Eastern Orthodox Committee on Scouting
[EOCS] was created in 1960 by the Standing Conference of Orthodox Bishops in the Americas, whose purpose is to conduct the mission of our Lord and His Church via the Boy Scouts of America and the Girl Scouts USA programs on a national level.
 

SCOBA recognizes the EOCS officially
as the
SCOUTING COMMISSION
