Child abuse scandals in the church shake our faith in our fellow neighbors, and sometimes even our faith in God. We cannot afford to ignore the issue, content to hope and pray that our children will be safe. Rather than waiting until something drastic happens and lamenting about it, churches can take active steps to put safeguards in place for their ministry. Safe Kids is a manual designed to help churches structure the safest possible environment for their children's ministry. This manual provides: Forms and procedures to screen volunteersIdeas for structuring the church building to keep nurseries and Sunday school classrooms safeInstructions for training children's workersInformation you must know to identify potential predatorsPolicies for reporting suspected child abuseAnd much more!Safe Kids is the essential handbook for keeping children safe within the walls of the church
