Safe Place Policy

Since 1977, Union Presbyterian Church has had in place a policy to make sure our church is a safe place, especially for children.

The policy includes assurance that those who work with our children as teachers and advisors are people of Christian character and known to us.  Young people sixteen years of age or in the tenth grade are eligible to work with younger children in our educational program.  All volunteers go through a process which includes filling out an application, a personal interview, and signing an agreement to abide by the church’s policy.  We also offer training annually regarding the church’s policy and what is acceptable and appropriate behavior.
