Stronger Families = Safer Churches

As leaders, we need to encourage one another to stay the course of being aware abuse happens. Abuse happens in the church, in families, and among peer on peer. Our focus is to help people be aware of how to discern the issues and legally report them with the ultimate goal of moving forward. In an ideal world, raising awareness could also serve as prevention among students, leaders, parents, and the church.
