Episode Description

In this episode of the Morally Straight Podcast, I’m talking to Alison Batey. Even if you don’t think you know Batey, you surely are familiar with her work. She’s the founder of the LGBTQ+ Scouts and Allies group on Facebook, a 2,000-member community dedicated to making Scouting a better place for queer and trans kids.

But that’s not all Batey did during her time working for the Boy Scouts of America. In this episode, we talked about her many LGBTQ+ inclusion projects, the barriers she faced bringing some of them to life, and the impact she hopes to continue having as a Scouting volunteer.
