L1 Volunteers Safe Church Awareness Workshop Online

CCVT is pleased to offer online training for volunteers. Be trained online and equipped to ensure your church or agency is a Safe Place for everyone.  CCVT recommends that all volunteers, including those volunteering in music, worship, ministry, hosting, services, hospitality, administration, community, parking and security teams, attend a Safe Church Awareness Workshop as a pre-requisite to volunteering in the local church.

👤Presented by Viliamu Leuga & Lucy Bentley 

The Safe Church Program was founded on a commitment to protecting the safety of all people within its programs, ministries and events, and supporting churches and agencies to adhere to best practice and safety legislation.

Topics include:

• Foundations and Principles of a Safe Church

• Protecting Vulnerable People

• Definitions and Indicators of Abuse

• Reporting and Response Procedures

Safe Church Awareness Workshops are facilitated by trained presenters, and attendance is recognised by CCVT for all volunteers.

Please note: This workshop involves discussion and definitions of different types of abuse. The topic of abuse is a confronting issue. CCVT advises that whilst Safe Church Awareness Workshops strive to present information in a respectful and sensitive manner, some components may be disturbing.  If concerned, please discuss the situation with your pastor or contact the event organiser before attending.

Level 1 Volunteers SCAW and Level 2 Leaders SCAW are required workshops for all looking to progress towards CCVT Pastoral Accreditation.

This workshop is not suitable for persons under 15 years of age.
