Learning from Mistakes: Strengthening Youth Safety with Research-Based Screening Practices /sarahmentoring/learning-from-mistakes-strengthening-youth-safety-with-researchbased-screening-practices learningfrommistakesscreening-120228132858-phpapp02
The past several months has seen multiple reports of respected and trusted adults accused of inappropriate sexual contact with children and youth. Friends for Youth has also seen an increase in the numbers of inquiries about our resource, SAFE (Screening Applicants for Effectiveness): Guidelines to Prevent Child Molestation in Mentoring and Youth-Serving Organizations) that many program staff use in screening and assessing their volunteers. This webinar takes a closer look at Red Flags during the application and monitoring process – and how to use recommended tools to your advantage to uncover more information. This presentation will cover qualities and characteristics of perpetrators of child sexual abuse that we’ve learned from research on convicted child molesters and from our own 30+ year history of providing safe and effective mentors to vulnerable youth. Program Director Sarah Kremer is joined by Executive Director Becky Cooper, who co-authored our resource and first began looking into how to assess volunteers even before background checks were available. ]]>

https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/profile-photo-sarahmentoring-48x48.jpg?cb=1522819770 Friends for Youth's Mentoring Institute began in 1998 as a response to the growing need for standardized practices in mentoring youth. We provide education to practitioners based on the field’s Recommended Best Practices, the latest research, and over 30 years of successful programming. We do this by providing resources, trainings, and consultations to programs who want to create a mentoring program or improve their current services; protecting the safety and well-being of youth by promoting successful mentoring models; and furthering the field through research and information dissemination, sponsoring an annual conference every January, and supporting local coalition efforts. www.mentoringinstitute.org https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/ittakesallofus4final-140402145116-phpapp01-thumbnail.jpg?width=320&height=320&fit=bounds slideshow/it-takesallofus-4final/33050502 It Takes All of Us A S... https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/ittakesallofus3final-140319142705-phpapp01-thumbnail.jpg?width=320&height=320&fit=bounds slideshow/it-takes-all-of-us-a-seminar-series-about-educating-and-developing-youth-part-three/32504102 It Takes All of Us: A ... https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/ittakesallofus2final-140305203955-phpapp02-thumbnail.jpg?width=320&height=320&fit=bounds slideshow/it-takes-all-of-us-a-seminar-series-on/31970051 It Takes All of Us: A ...
