Many adults throughout the diocese have been participating in the “Protecting God’s Children” program. This adult training program helps adults identify ways to make children’s environments safer, identify the reality of and warning signs of abuse, and become more confident in their ability to safely minister to children.
Participation in this program is required of all employees and volunteers, including JFK Davenport Parks & Recs teams using our property and scout leaders.
