• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A one-of-a-kind guide for youth-serving organizations to help build out their own child protection policies in just 120 days. Expert guidance, worksheets, and checklists take the guesswork out of confusing industry standards-so you can focus on helping kids learn, grow, and flourish. Written by two legal experts with more than 60 years of experience helping youth-serving organizations (YSOs), Protecting Other People's Children provides a blueprint for organizations to develop their own child safety policies. From private schools to church youth groups to mentoring organizations to summer camps, YSOs provide unparalleled opportunities for children to learn, grow, and flourish. Unfortunately, because they serve a vulnerable population, those groups also face unparalleled risks. With Protecting Other People's Children, organizations will be able to:

• Recognize and avoid common pitfalls and mistakes
• Set up a workable timeline for implementation
• Create and confirm their own commitments and principles
• Access several supportive worksheets, checklists, and activity guides
• Learn how to pick the right people (leaders, team, volunteers, etc.)
• Understand and adhere important protocols and guidelines
• Appropriately respond to serious incidents

Protecting Other People's Children enables YSOs to develop robust, sustainable child protection plans, holding everyone accountable while protecting both the programs and the minors they serve.
