What will this workshop cover?
The training day will be broken down into two sections: Basic Safe Sanctuaries & Safe Sanctuaries Next Steps.  If you have already attended a basic training you are more than welcome to join us after lunch.  Or even if you have been but would like a refresher course we welcome you for the whole day.  The following explains what will be covered in each section.

The Basic Safe Sanctuaries section will focus on:

• Proper ways to recruit and screen workers with children and youth.
• Proven procedures for safe ministry with children and youth.
• Appropriate ways to report and respond to allegations of abuse for all involved.

 The Safe Sanctuaries Next Steps section will focus on:

·       Best practices (screenings, off campus trips, overnight trips, mentoring/confirmation).

·       Ministries to children and youth with special needs.

·       Shepherding programs for offenders.

·       Risks related to emerging technologies.
