Venturing is a core program of Scouting America for coeducational teenagers and young adults ages 14 (or 13 and graduated the eighth grade) through 20. It is one of Scouting America's three programs for older youth, the others being Sea Scouts and Exploring. The purpose of Venturing is to provide a positive environment where youth members, called Venturers, can experience adventure, leadership, personal growth, and service.
