Safe Sanctuaries
In
the United Methodist Church, we strive to provide safe, caring
environments for children, youth and the adults who work with
them. As a result, each church is encouraged to have a Safe
Sanctuaries policy in place.
Each adult volunteer is required to attend a Safe
Sanctuaries training session before they are allowed to volunteer in
areas of the church that serve children and youth.
