As the High Priest Group Leader, can I see all home teaching districts in our ward? I need to see both ours and the Elders lists.

The HPGL can only see the home teaching for the High Priests.

For now you will have to get a printed copy from the Clerk who has access to both the EQ and HPG home teaching information.

For some reason, as an EQ President, I am able to see both the HP Home Teaching Districts and that of my quorum. Inside the LCR, when I click "Organizations" and then choose "Home and Visiting Teaching", it brings up the page I have attached here. On the right-hand side labeled "Quorum/Auxiliary" (circled in orange in the attachment) I can move between the Elders Quorum information and the High Priests information. Under the "Companionships" tab (circled in green) I can see the home teaching districts of the quorum I selected to view. Hopefully that helps!

What jdlessley said was correct until a few weeks ago. The view rights were expanded so now Quorum/Group Leaders have the ability to view all home teaching information for your ward, by using the Quorum/Auxiliary selector in the top right you can switch between HP & EQ.

I'm RS President and I would like to be able to see Home Teaching assignments, for both HP and Elders. When we are needing assistance for sisters and their families, I would like to be able to see who their HTs are so they can be involved, for whatever the need is, make it more of a cohesive effort for families. It would only need to be a "read only" concept obviously but it would be very useful, helpful, wonderful, and I believe appropriate to be able to reference. Thank you.

I don't have access myself but I believe you can see the home teachers by looking at the member's record in LCR (accessed by the lookup box or the Member List).

I believe that between LCR and LDS Tools, you can. At least for individual sisters - just not the "big picture" assignments.

You can see the assigned home teachers for individuals by looking at the member profile in LCR. There has been some discussion about possibilities for additional reporting to address this, but I don't know what, if any, decision hasbeen made.

+1.

Just so others know, our High Priest Group leadership would like the Relief Society to see our home teaching assignments as well, and we would love to be able to see their visiting teaching assignments.

Because this isn't a capability yet of LCR, each month we send a PDF of our District Reporting form to the Relief Society so they know what we are doing.

Often it is helpful in rescue efforts for RS and HPG to be coordinating their focus on certain families and individuals, and knowing what is happening with home and visiting teaching is fundamental to that.
