For any WOSM event, Listening Ears should use this form during or after each encounter they may have. We encourage Listening ears to take notes with a pen and paper during the encounter and complete the online version of the form later.
The Listening Ear’s role is to guide and support a Scout in need, whether the Scout is faced with a risk of harm or experiencing discomfort at the event.
