Navigating Sexual Propriety:
Cultivating Respect, Safety, and Accountability

Sexual misconduct in nonprofit ministries and organizations creates significant harm to individuals, gives rise to enterprise-threatening liability, and tarnishes our biblical witness, credibility, and reputation. This webinar is designed to equip you with the essential strategies to safeguard against such conduct.

In this webinar, we will explore the importance of:

• screening and training,
• effective governance through policies and procedures,
• the biblical basis for proactive protection that’s above reproach,
• protocols for responding to allegations and conducting investigations, and
• a path forward that encompasses vigilant monitoring, thorough assessment, and meticulous documentation.
