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.

This workshop is not suitable for persons under 15 years of age. Leaders should register for the Leaders Safe Church Awareness Workshop, particularly those wishing to progress towards pastoral Accreditation.
