Together, we can help prevent child sexual abuse. Take a look at some of these helpful resources from other organizations who share the Y’s commitment to the safety of children. What Do We Do to Protect Children: Screening - All employees and volunteers complete background and reference checks before hire. Members and guests are screened daily using the Raptor system, which checks the National Sex Offender Registry. The Y identifies unwanted visitors instantly by scanning driver’s licenses and state-issued ID’. If a potential threat is identified, the Raptor system will send an instant alert to designated management staff. If necessary, law enforcement will be notified. Training - Comprehensive online and in-person child abuse prevention training is mandatory for all YMCA employees and volunteers. We educate our team on appropriate conduct, while also teaching the warning signs of abuse. Reporting - If an allegation arises, the YMCA will proactively work with the authorities and all parties involved to respond in a prompt, thorough, and empathetic manner. Policy - The YMCA of the Chippewa Valley maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward child abuse and child endangerment. Staff are expected to report any questionable behavior they see, or violations of the Code of Conduct. Auditing - We audit our operations regularly to ensure we continuously uphold the highest standards in child safety and protection.
