Nancy Kauffmann, interim denominational minister of Church Safety, said, “Anyone who wants to be proactive in preventing abuse of any kind in our homes, churches and communities — congregations, pastors, educators, schools, agencies, parents, conferences — in other words, anyone looking for resources, including curricula, trainings, consultation services and speakers, should visit the Safe Church webpage.”
