Each church and mission within the Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe is obliged to adhere to the Safeguarding Policies adopted by the Convocation. This document seeks to offer direction and requirements for the proper care and appropriate attention to be given to children, youth and vulnerable adults. It also aims to provide for the protection of teachers, youth workers, employees and clergy from compromising or dangerous situations. The purpose of this policy is to foster the highest standards of behavior in ministry settings.
If you have heard complaints from children, youth or a vulnerable adult, or have reason to believe that a member of the community is being abused, you should simply report the matter to a member of the clergy, or to the Safeguarding Officer.
St. Paul’s Safeguarding Officer is Susan Grooters. Email: safeguarding@stpaulsrome.it.
