New Unit Organizer Award
Unit Commissioner's Key
(If the award is earned more than once, then a device showing the program earned in will be worn on the uniform. The patch is not worn more than once.)

Unit Leader Award of Merit
A quality Scouting experience will help keep Scouts in the program, and the Boy Scouts of America created the Unit Leader Award of Merit to recognize the quality unit leaders who make that happen.
The Unit Leader Award of Merit replaces the Scoutmaster, Varsity Team Coach, and Venturing Crew Advisor award of merit programs. This new recognition has revised requirements and may be earned by Cubmasters as well.
