The Archdiocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting (ACCS) is dedicated to promoting “Duty to God” in all scouting programs. The ACCS is a committee of the Archdiocese of St Paul and Minneapolis and is affiliated with the National Catholic Committee on Scouting ® (NCCS), an advisory to the Boy Scouts of America. 
The ACCS supports programs that promote on-going Catholic faith formation through Scouting. ACCS activities include the promotion of religious emblems, NCCS unit/volunteer recognitions, annual recognition ceremony, summer camp chaplains, and units chartered to Catholic organizations.
