Wanakee’s Safe Community Policy
A Safe Community for All at Wanakee
Relationships among people are at the foundation of Christian ministry and as such are central to the life of the church. Defining healthy and safe relationships through policies and codes of conduct is not meant, in any way, to undermine the strength and importance of personal interaction in our ministries. Rather, it is to assist in more clearly defining behaviors and practices that allow the church to more fully demonstrate its love and compassion for children and youth in sincere and genuine relationships.
These policies from the Camp and Retreat Ministries, New England Conference of the United Methodist Church are designed to protect the children, youth, vulnerable adults, the staff, the volunteers and the ministry from harm.
