Extension Scouting are programs in some Scout organizations for young people with special needs.
Background
Extension Scouting was earlier [when?] called Scouts Malgré Tout[by whom?][citation needed], which is French for "Scouts Despite Everything". It aims to meet the mandate[<span title="Script error: No such module "decodeEncode".">further explanation needed] from Robert Baden-Powell, founder and first Chief Scout of The Boy Scouts Association in the United Kingdom, that the programme be made "open to all."[1][better source needed]
Young people with special needs join in with Scout groups on a regular basis but some organizations provide a special parallel program tailored to these participants.[<span title="Script error: No such module "decodeEncode".">vague] For example, The Scout Association of the United Kingdom formed a Disabled Scout Branch in 1926 and has various Scoutlink groups around the country. Scoutlink is a program run by The Scout Association of the United Kingdom in order to provide support and involvement for young people and adults with developmental disabilities, a form of Extension Scouting[dubious – discuss][citation needed] but is also the name of an Internet chat site and joint programs between The Scout Association in Northern Ireland and Scouting Ireland.
Extension Scouting is known by different names:
- in the Netherlands, "Blauwe Vogels" (Blue Birds), after the play L'Oiseau Bleu by Maurice Maeterlinck;
- in Scouts en Gidsen Vlaanderen, "AKABE", Anders KAn BEst (Different is all-right);
- in Polish Scouts[which?], "Template:Interlanguage link multi";
- in Kenya Scouts Association, "Street Scouts".
