Better Safe Than Sued
Author: Jack Crabtre
Most youth workers will admit that they dont spend a lot of time thinking about safety in their youth ministry. Sure, they shout, Seat belts! when the crew loads into the van, or they use the buddy system when at theme parks. But beyond that, theyre mostly concerned with introducing students to Jesus. Nothings wrong with looking after their spiritual well-being, but overlooking their safety can lead to pain and problems for you, your students, your church, or your community.
The reality is, whether its a game of dodgeball in the church gym, or a rock climbing trip during a summer retreat, you have precious cargo in your care, and its your responsibility to make sure they return home safely and in one piece.
Better Safe Than Sued is an essential guidebook for anyone in youth ministrypaid or volunteer, veteran or rookie. Along with questions to get you thinking about your own ministry context after each chapter, inside youll discover how you can make your ministry a safe place for students and leaders as you read about:
Safety while riding in buses, vans, and cars
Camps, retreats, and conferences
Selecting staff
Avoiding sexual misconduct
Establishing a No-Bully Zone
How to handle injuries, and much more
Make sure your ministry is safe and that youre protected so you never have to be the one saying, I never took safety seriously until
