Landmark ruling for churches on child sexual abuse
A supreme court has rejected a Catholic diocese’s argument, that it was not responsible for child abuse because it occurred during social visits, describing the argument as an ‘affront to common sense’.
Safe Church training fees lower in 2022
Safe Church training will be even better value in 2022, with fees being reduced further.
For any of our training sessions, we will only charge your congregation or ministry a token fee of $5 a person.
This means for a full day Level 1 workshop, which includes three sessions, the total cost will be $15 a person.
