Founded in 1910, the Boy Scouts of America® (BSA) is one of the nation's largest organizations, with over 2.4 million boy scouts and nearly a million adult volunteers. Current lawsuits allege that Cub Scouts®, Boy Scouts® and Explorer Scouts® have been sexually abused by Scoutmasters® and other adult leaders.

According to newly released records, nearly 8,000 Boy Scout® Leaders have been accused of sexual abuse since 1944 alone. Details of the abuse and a blacklist of alleged molesters are contained in what is now known as the "Perversion Files". These files have been hidden from the public for over 100 years.

If you were abused by a leader of the Boy Scouts®, you are not alone. Those who have been abused as a Boy Scout®, Cub Scout®, or Explorer Scout® may be eligible for compensation.
