What was the "Boy Scouts" has been replaced by other things. Such as...

Federation of North American Explorers

"Our Explorer movement offers a same-gender program experience. Within our explorer movement, we differentiate between men and women, to accompany our young people in a conscious development of themselves and to respond to the needs of each gender be they physiological, physical or spiritual. This proven method, which is faithful to Baden-Powell, creates balanced personalities and constitutes a fulfilling and happy environment that complements family life, which by nature is mixed, and the life of our greater society...."

All these decent “alternatives to the Boy Scouts” like Camp Fire, Navigators USA, Boys Brigade, Cadet Corps, Federation of North-American Explorers, Pathfinders, Royal Rangers, Trail Life USA, Troops of Saint George, etc., etc., should get together and combine their troop units and resources. Strength in numbers. It would be much easier for people to find a troop near them if they combine their organizations.

There was also a rival group to the BSA in the early 20th century called the “American Boy Scouts”. It dissolved in the 1920s, so I assume there’s nothing stopping these organizations from claiming that as their new name, and advertising themselves as the REAL Boy Scouts.
