The Israel Catholic Scouts Association (Arabic: منظمة الكشاف الكاثوليكي في إسرائيل, Monazamat Al-kashaf Al-katuliki fi Israyil) was founded in 1951 from five Scout groups established since 1926. Today, the organization consists of 18 Scout groups which belong to the Greek Catholic, Latin, and Maronite creeds. Three archbishops are Co-Presidents of the organization.[1]
