Wordpress Version 4.7.5

We have a new forum and two of my mods are listed as moderators under users, however they can’t access forums listed as “private” for some reason.

Even if I edit the private forum and list them as mods there as well they still can’t access.

ok, per forum moderation is something that is 2.6.

Suggest you download the release candidate 3 and try again to see if this is a bug that has been fixed

and words from the plugin author on moderators in 2.6

In bbPress 2.6, per-forum moderators will work like this:
* Users with the global Moderator role will be able to moderate all forums
* Users assigned as a moderator to a specific forum will act like a moderator in that forum
* This includes private & hidden forums, where the non-moderator (Participant role) user wouldnt otherwise even be able to see them at all
There are weird situations that could come up, but youd have to be working backwards in both directions to see them. For example, giving someone the Blocked user role, but then trying to make them a moderator in a forum, is weird. In these cases, the block wins.
