Safe Church – Child Safe Information
#7 Our people understand child safety. Our pastor(s), other leaders, employees, and volunteers participate in regular training that provides them with an understanding of the fundamentals of child abuse, the importance of ethical conduct, how to respond to concerns, and how to prioritise child safety in a congregational context.
Who needs to do what sections of the Safe Church Training program?
A copy of the Safe Church Training model and details of who needs to complete each level, are attached and provided at www.lca.org.au/safechurchtraining/#required-training
