Requirement
4.0.0.3. The age exception for youth with special needs
Optional
Youth members with severe and permanent mental or physical disabilities may work toward ranks even after passing the chronological age of eligibility for a program. The procedure is in "Registering Qualified Members Beyond Age of Eligibility", 10.1.0.0, and not here.
Notes and warnings
Note. This plan stops at the signpost on purpose. The registration procedure beyond the age of eligibility is a process of its own with its own approvals, and it is set out in 10.1.0.0 rather than in the Cub Scout section.
