TitleMaking Your Sanctuary Safe: Resources for Developing Congregational Abuse Prevention Policies
NotesOur churches are holy places of sanctuary. Our churches must continue to be places where people of all ages can come together for worship, study and service with the assurance that they are secure in that community.

The focus of this packet is to offer resources on how to prevent abuse from occuring in your church. We have included information on why a church prevention program is necessary and ways in which a church can be vulnerable. We include ideas for how to keep children safe, screening processes for staff and volunteers, ways to assess the safety and needs of your congregation , as well as sample prevention policies and further resources.
