Citizenship in Society Merit Badge

Citizenship in Society Logo

Citizenship in Society is a new Eagle required merit badge. The emphasis of this merit badge is for Scouts to explore ways to live the Scout Oath and Scout Law.  This merit badge is different; there will be no merit badge book and there is no “correct” answer for any of the requirements. Download the merit badge requirements and the merit badge workbook below. This parent letter gives background information about the merit badge and who to contact if there are questions regarding the subject matter: Parent Letter Citizenship in Society 03.2022 Signed.

Download the merit badge requirements here: Citizenship in Society MB Requirements

and the merit badge workbook here: Citizenship in Society MB Guidebook. NOTE: This is not an official BSA document and is not required for any class but can be helpful in earning the merit badge.
