It might.
Finally making the seismic shifts it needs to in order to modernize - from welcoming LGBTQ+ members and Scout leaders to no longer being boys-only - while finally facing the scandals the have plagued it for decades, BSA, now Scouting America, might finally be ready to move forward.
Only time will tell, though.

Yeah I really hope it can improve. It has a lot of bad shit, but the fundamental concept of getting kids outdoors and doing shit as well as teaching them to take responsibility for their part in their society is all really good
