Adult Roster and Background Check Verification

The roster must include full legal names, registration/volunteer ID numbers, and role designations for every adult present.

Yes No N/A

All supervising adults have completed Youth Protection Training within the required renewal period critical (required)

Confirm training completion dates are current (typically within 2 years per BSA policy; verify your organization's requirement). Training records must be accessible on-site or via the organization's digital registry.

Yes No N/A

Number of adults whose Youth Protection Training is expired or not on record critical (required)

Enter 0 if all adults are current. Any value above 0 requires immediate corrective action and removal of non-compliant adults from supervisory roles.

Yes No N/A

Two-Deep Leadership — Physical Supervision Compliance

At least two registered, unrelated adults are present in every space where minors are gathered critical (required)

Conduct a physical walkthrough of all rooms, outdoor areas, restroom corridors, and activity zones. Confirm two unrelated adults are visible and present in each occupied space.

Yes No N/A

Photo evidence (optional)

No adult is observed alone one-on-one with a minor in any enclosed or isolated space critical (required)

Check all rooms, hallways, storage areas, vehicles, and outdoor perimeter zones. A single adult with a single minor in any space — even briefly — constitutes a two-deep leadership violation.

Yes No N/A

If breakout groups or sub-activities are occurring, each group has two unrelated adults present critical (required)

Verify that splitting into smaller groups does not result in any group having fewer than two unrelated adult supervisors. Mark N/A if no breakout groups are in use.

Yes No N/A

Restroom and changing area supervision protocol is in place and being followed critical (required)

Adults must not enter restrooms or changing areas occupied by minors of the opposite sex. Buddy systems or timed check-ins must be in place. Confirm the protocol is posted and observed.

Yes No N/A

Transportation arrangements (if applicable) comply with two-deep leadership — no adult driving alone with a single minor critical (required)

If vehicles are in use, confirm each vehicle carrying minors has at least two adults OR that a minor's own parent/guardian is the sole adult with their own child only. Mark N/A if no transportation is occurring.

Yes No N/A

All activity areas are arranged to maintain open visibility (no opaque barriers blocking adult-to-youth sightlines)

Rooms and outdoor zones should be configured so adults can observe all minors. Doors to rooms with minors should remain open or have vision panels.

Yes No N/A

Describe any supervision gaps or borderline situations observed during the walkthrough

Document any areas where two-deep coverage was marginal, temporarily lapsed, or required immediate correction. Enter 'None observed' if fully compliant.

Electronic and Remote Communication Controls

All adult-to-minor electronic communications (text, email, social media) are conducted on group channels visible to at least one other adult critical (required)

Private one-on-one messaging between an adult and a minor is prohibited. Group chats, parent-copied emails, or organization-managed platforms must be used.

Yes No N/A

Organization's digital communication policy is posted and accessible to all adults and parents

The policy should specify approved platforms, prohibited behaviors, and reporting procedures.

Yes No N/A

Virtual/online meetings (if applicable) have at least two unrelated adults present as hosts or co-hosts critical (required)

For video-based program sessions, two-deep leadership applies equally. Confirm meeting host logs or screenshots confirm dual adult presence. Mark N/A if no virtual meetings are in scope.

Yes No N/A

Adults are not connected to individual minors on personal social media accounts

Verify through policy attestation or spot-check. Adults should only connect with youth via official organization channels.

Yes No N/A

Incident Reporting and Youth Protection Awareness

Youth protection reporting procedures are posted in a visible location at the activity site critical (required)

Posting should include the organization's internal reporting contact, local child protective services number, and law enforcement non-emergency line.

Yes No N/A

All adults on-site can verbally identify the designated Youth Protection Officer or point of contact for this event

Spot-check by asking two or more adults who they would contact if they observed a two-deep leadership violation or suspected abuse.

Yes No N/A

No unreported youth protection incidents or concerns are known to be pending from this activity critical (required)

Ask the lead adult supervisor directly. Any known pending concern must be documented and escalated before the audit is closed.

Yes No N/A

Minors have been informed of their right to report concerns and the identity of a trusted adult contact

Confirm through program agenda, posted signage, or verbal confirmation from the lead adult that youth have been briefed on reporting.

Yes No N/A

Rate the general awareness and culture of youth protection compliance observed among adults at this activity.

Note (optional)

Total number of critical deficiencies identified during this audit critical (required)

Enter 0 if no critical items failed. Any critical deficiency requires immediate corrective action before the activity may continue.

Summary of all deficiencies and assigned corrective actions

List each deficiency by section and item name, the corrective action required, the person responsible, and the target completion date. Enter 'No deficiencies identified' if fully compliant.

Photo documentation of any observed supervision gaps or non-compliant arrangements

Attach photos supporting any deficiency findings. Photos should not capture minors' faces without parental consent — focus on spatial arrangements, signage, or rosters.
