Youth Protection Program

 

The JDI Youth Protection Program and Policy Q & A:

Q:
Do the SGC delegates have to vote on the program at Supreme Session in 2008?

A:

No.  The YPP program is part of the Board of Trustees duties as outlined in B-SGC Article VI.  The program has been voted on by the Board and as such is now final Implementation has begun.

Q: Can I view the program?

A:

The JDI Youth Protection Program and Policy document is viewable by Clicking Here.

Q:

How much will this cost?

A:

The Certified Adult Volunteer (CAV) Application fee is $44.00 and includes the cost of the Background Investigation.   Thereafter, the annual CAV renewal fee is $18.00

Q:

When can I be trained as a CAV?

A:

Every Jurisdiction either has or will be contacted shortly to develop their own Implementation Schedule.  The Kickoff Dates and Compliance Dates will be listed in the table at the bottom of this page.  Please remember that this schedule is in the early stages of development and will be updated frequently as new dates are added.

Q:

How much time will my Jurisdiction be allowed to reach full compliance?

A:

The length of time allowed for a Jurisdiction to reach full compliance depends on the size of that Jurisdiction.  This is being arranged with the leaders of each Jurisdiction.

Q:

Will the Application Forms be available on the web?

A:

In order for us to have a smooth roll-out of the plan, the forms will not be available on the web.  As initial full compliance is achieved, this decision may be revisited.
