Standards for Privacy Trips or Outings

    To support the BSA policy of two-deep leadership on all trips or outings, we must address the sleeping arrangements of male and female leaders.
     All leaders are expected to reflect high moral standards established by customs, traditional values, and religious teachings.
   Male and female leaders require separate sleeping facilities. Married couples may share the some quarters if appropriate facilities ore available
    Male and female youth participants must not share the some sleeping facility. When tents are used, no youth will stay in the tent of on adult other than his/her parent or guardian
    When housing other than tents is used, separate housing must be provided for both male and female participants. Adult male leaders must be responsible for the male participants. Adult female leaders must be responsible for the female participants.
    Adult leaders need to respect the privacy of youth members in situations where the youth ore changing clothes or taking showers, and intrude only to the
extent that health and safety require. Adults also need to protect their own privacy in similar situations
    Although it is not mandatory, councils are strongly encouraged to have separate shower and latrine facilities for females. In camps where separate facilities are not available, separate shower schedules for males and females should be posted. Use the buddy system for latrine use by having one person wait outside the entrance, or use Occupied and Unoccupied signs on door latches.
