I am looking for contact information for agencies that run an explorer program but do not charter their program through the Boy Scouts of America. Thank you in advance!

The St. Petersburg Police Public Safety Cadet Program was initially created as the St. Petersburg Police Explorers in 1969. The program was run under the Boy Scouts of America – Learning for Life division through 2021. In 2022, the program joined the Public Safety Cadets organization and continued to be sponsored by the St. Petersburg Police Department.
The Panama City Police Department transitioned from Explorers to Public Safety Cadets (PSC) in 2022. I am attaching some files from our Public Safety Cadet program. The PSC Organization is a fairly new, non-profit organization. Here is their website address: https://publicsafetycadets.org/default.aspx?
There is a wealth of information on this site that can help you determine if this is the path for your agency.
