Child Abuse Prevention

Providing a safe environment and creating a culture of safety for every person the Y engages is essential to our mission, cause, and viability as an organization. This commitment is underscored in a membership qualification that establishes minimum safety practices for YMCAs in the area of child abuse prevention.

YMCA of the USA’s (Y-USA) partnership with Praesidium provides all YMCAs access—free of charge—to enhanced tools and services for strengthening Child Abuse Prevention efforts. These customized resources from Praesidium, an industry leader in creating safe environments for kids, can help YMCAs galvanize the culture, practices and behavior needed to prevent child sexual abuse.
