Safe Sanctuaries Workshop - Mt. Vernon, First

Start Date: 2/18/2012
Start Time: 10am
End Time: 1pm

The Save Sanctuaries Workshop is designed for congregations who don’t have a written Safe Sanctuaries Policy. The workshop prepares a core team of 4 – 5 to work with the congregation to write a policy, as well as providing information on how to train trustees, teachers, parents and pastors on the implementation of that policy.

Taught by Cassandra Negri
