How committed would you be to her safety? The Salvation Army is dedicated to the protection of the thousands of children and youth entrusted to our care.

Did you know that every officer, employee and volunteer who works with children and youth through an Army program must complete an Application for Working with Children and Youth, agree to a police records check, view the Unveiling the Realities of Child Abuse training DVD and be cleared through the office of the territorial abuse advisor? It may seem like a lot of effort, but isn’t it worth it?

For information on what this means for your local children and youth programs read about the Screening Process, contact your divisional headquarters, or e-mail Nancy Turley, territorial abuse advisor, at nancy_turley@can.salvationarmy.org.
