Notice: The YMCA enforces its policies and practices to prevent child abuse. Allegations or suspicions of child abuse are taken very seriously at the YMCA and will be reported to the proper authorities for investigation. We have abuse reporting procedures, unscheduled visits from supervisors, and a code of conduct for staff. We minimize opportunities for abuse to occur and we talk with children about personal safety and touching limits. Background screenings are taken to prevent abusers from being hired and we provide child abuse prevention trainings to staff.
