The Bronze Pelican Emblem is a Diocesan recognition granted by the Diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting with the approval of the Bishop. It may be presented to any adult working in or supporting Scouting programs (Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, American Heritage Girls, Trail Life USA, and Camp Fire) under Catholic auspices or in units not partnered by the Church, and to those who have made a significant contribution to Scouting in the field of Catholic relationships. The purpose of this emblem is to recognize an outstanding contribution to the spiritual development of Catholic youth in Scouting programs.

Eligibility
Recipients may be Catholic men and women, including priests and religious, and non-Catholic individuals. Nominations are due by March 1, 2024.
