Youth Protection. A comprehensive approach to Youth Protection has been established for the sake of our youth. On line Training is available and periodic training may be held by the Troop. Youth Protection Training teaches us that we use 2 DEEP LEADERSHIP in Scouting. No Scout will be alone with any Adult who is not their Parent or Guardian EVER. We will strive to keep our Youth within our sight and sound. • All Youth in Troop 423 are REQUIRED to participate in Youth Protection Training. • All Adults participating in ANY Troop 423 Activity are REQUIRED to have Youth Protection. That includes but is not limited to outings, camping, volunteer activities, merit badge counseling, etc.
Youth Protection. The SYM strives to create a safe and secure environment for its youth participants. We encourage participants and parents who may have concerns to let us know so we can ensure the issues are addressed. The guidelines and procedures set forth below represent our effort to ensure all SYM leaders, volunteers and youth members understand the expectations of the SYM. All SYM Assemblies are responsible for creating their own Youth Protection Policies and adhering to them; the following guidelines and procedures apply to everyone, including leaders, volunteers and SYM members. Zero Tolerance Policy Against Abuse Abuse of any kind shall not be permitted within our organization. SYM does not tolerate any form of abuse, whether physical, sexual, emotional or verbal, or any other misconduct from our leaders, volunteers or youth members. Physical or sexual abuse is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, striking, hitting, kicking, biting, spitting, indecent gesturing, lewd remarks, indecent exposure, unwanted physical contact, any form of sexual contact or inappropriate touching, innuendo or suggestions. Emotional or verbal abuse is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, the use of foul, demeaning, threatening or bullying language or making abusive statements about a person’s race, gender, religion, nationality, color, ethnicity, sex, sexual orientation, disability, age or any other characteristic. Barriers to Abuse Every activity sponsored by the SYM should be monitored to ensure no youth or group of youth is alone without an SYM leader or other approved adult. Unless an emergency exists, no adult shall take a youth alone to bathrooms or any other secluded setting. When traveling with youth participants, youth should be paired with other youth of the same gender and similar age group. Sleeping, bathing and clothes-changing accommodations must respect the privacy of the youth. Youth shall be empowered to trust their feelings, and SYM leaders and volunteers shall make clear that their concerns are important by listening to them. Open communication between youth and parents or between youth and other adults in the organization may help reveal early warning signs of abuse. Mandatory Reporting of Abuse Part of your leadership responsibility is to be alert to any activity or condition that could threaten the safety of our youth. All persons involved with SYM shall immediately report to local law enforcement authorities any good faith...
