PROTECTING OUR YOUTH

From Sexual Misconduct & Other Harms
How Lawyers Can Help

Sadly, sexual abuse of minors is a risk in any organization where youth are present, including Orthodox churches. And lawsuits for sexual misconduct is the number one reason churches appear in court. OCAN is partnering with Orthodox Youth Ministries to create a model Youth Protection Policy for the Orthodox jurisdictions that don't have one.

Listen to this discussion on youth protection issues, including:

Why Orthodox parishes must care about youth sexual abuse prevention.
On what basis can churches be held liable for sexual abuse?
Which church members have a legal obligation to report suspected sexual abuse to law enforcement?
How can you help your parish protect youth from abuse?

Speakers:

Ken Liu, Executive Director, Orthodox Christian Attorney Network
Aleks O. Rushing, Partner and Education Attorney, Husch Blackwell LLP
