Summary: Safe Ministry Check offers four levels of training, so everyone in your church can be trained for their role, from members of the congregation to staff and board members. A person's trainee type sets which course they complete.

In short: everyone. "Vulnerable people" goes well beyond children. It can include someone in your Bible study with chronic mental health struggles, an elderly widow who relies on lifts to church, or a newly arrived refugee. There may be as many vulnerable people in the congregation during the sermon as there are in the crèche.

Building a culture of safe ministry means everyone knows what to look out for, how to respond if they have concerns, and how to protect vulnerable people.

For: every member of your church.

Builds a culture of safe ministry across your whole church by equipping everyone to look out for vulnerable people.

For: people who serve and interact with vulnerable people regularly, including (but not limited to):

Covers safe and appropriate ministry conduct, signs of abuse, and how to report concerns or incidents.

For: people who lead teams in ministry, including (but not limited to):

Helps them understand their responsibility for making sure their teams and ministry environments follow safe ministry practices.

For: people in leadership and authority, including (but not limited to):

Helps them understand their responsibility for establishing a safe culture across your church.

Tip: If someone serves in more than one ministry, set their trainee type to match their highest level of responsibility.
