00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,000

2
00:00:02,961 --> 00:00:05,923
-Updates-

3
00:00:05,923 --> 00:00:09,542
Thanks for your participation so far
in the Safe and Secure training.

4
00:00:09,776 --> 00:00:10,844
Before we conclude,

5
00:00:10,844 --> 00:00:15,048
I wanted to take a few moments
to call out some very significant topics

6
00:00:15,048 --> 00:00:19,219
that pertain to our prevention strategies
and give a few important updates.

7
00:00:19,319 --> 00:00:22,059
These areas are ones
that are utilized frequently

8
00:00:22,059 --> 00:00:24,190
and where we often
get the most questions.

9
00:00:24,290 --> 00:00:25,839
I'm thankful for the questions

10
00:00:25,839 --> 00:00:28,561
because that means we are working
to put into practice

11
00:00:28,561 --> 00:00:32,085
prevention methods that can lower
the risk of harm to our children.

12
00:00:32,565 --> 00:00:36,796
First, I want to call your attention to Go
Method in our screening for volunteers.

13
00:00:37,237 --> 00:00:41,441
We've been using Go Method to assess
all our volunteers for over two years now.

14
00:00:41,541 --> 00:00:45,145
It's been a great tool to help us
have eyes on the vetting process

15
00:00:45,145 --> 00:00:48,703
for people we send to work alongside
of our personnel and partners.

16
00:00:48,982 --> 00:00:51,618
We have seen valuable results
with Go Method.

17
00:00:51,618 --> 00:00:55,622
This tool has alerted us to individuals
that posed a risk to our children

18
00:00:55,622 --> 00:00:57,208
and, in some cases adults,

19
00:00:57,208 --> 00:00:59,901
and we were able
to prevent unnecessary risks

20
00:00:59,901 --> 00:01:02,162
by having that vital information.

21
00:01:02,228 --> 00:01:05,698
Also, as reported from the field
in workers and volunteers,

22
00:01:05,698 --> 00:01:08,835
there has been great progress
in the streamlining of Go Method,

23
00:01:08,835 --> 00:01:13,273
and our commitment is to continue
to make that tool even more user-friendly.

24
00:01:13,339 --> 00:01:16,019
If you have questions
or need help using Go Method,

25
00:01:16,019 --> 00:01:20,391
please continue to reach out
via email to info@msnpath.com.

26
00:01:20,847 --> 00:01:24,622
And one update to Go Method
is that we are working on a better process

27
00:01:24,622 --> 00:01:28,971
for vetting non-U.S. citizen
or non-English proficient volunteers.

28
00:01:29,255 --> 00:01:32,642
This would cover those volunteers
who are unable to go through Go Method

29
00:01:32,642 --> 00:01:34,930
due to not being able
to have a background check

30
00:01:34,930 --> 00:01:37,147
or are not proficient in English,

31
00:01:37,147 --> 00:01:40,484
making the process difficult
to read, respond, and understand.

32
00:01:40,767 --> 00:01:42,221
We know this is a need,

33
00:01:42,221 --> 00:01:46,172
so please be looking for information
on the Intranet and Connections+

34
00:01:46,172 --> 00:01:49,142
regarding the process
we will use for those individuals.

35
00:01:49,142 --> 00:01:54,567
Again, if you have questions on this
process, email info@msnpath.com.

36
00:01:55,181 --> 00:01:58,337
Another incredible step
in raising the bar in prevention

37
00:01:58,337 --> 00:02:00,453
is the desire from field personnel

38
00:02:00,453 --> 00:02:04,498
to use our Safe and Secure training
to train nationals on child safety.

39
00:02:04,858 --> 00:02:08,294
These individuals may not be direct
partners with our organization,

40
00:02:08,294 --> 00:02:11,849
but individuals who work closely
with our personnel and platforms,

41
00:02:11,849 --> 00:02:14,813
churches, and other work
or ministry functions.

42
00:02:15,048 --> 00:02:16,897
Field personnel
are seeing the benefit

43
00:02:16,897 --> 00:02:19,606
from having those individuals
trained in child safety.

44
00:02:19,606 --> 00:02:22,175
And this may be a new concept
for the national.

45
00:02:22,175 --> 00:02:25,778
We are working at making our Safe
and Secure volunteer training available

46
00:02:25,778 --> 00:02:28,485
in several different languages
and unbranded

47
00:02:28,485 --> 00:02:30,823
so that field personnel
can share the training

48
00:02:30,823 --> 00:02:34,301
with those working closely
with them in work and ministries.

49
00:02:34,988 --> 00:02:38,358
Child safety training is spreading,
and this is great news.

50
00:02:38,458 --> 00:02:40,506
Education is key to prevention.

51
00:02:40,506 --> 00:02:44,034
Having our trainings and
our vetting process have a further reach

52
00:02:44,034 --> 00:02:46,140
can only strengthen
our opportunity

53
00:02:46,140 --> 00:02:50,360
to provide a safe and secure environment
for our children and the ones we serve.

54
00:02:50,870 --> 00:02:55,275
And another area that is fairly
new is the TCK Guidelines for Events.

55
00:02:55,375 --> 00:02:57,366
Those can be found now
on the Intranet

56
00:02:57,366 --> 00:03:00,567
by searching "TCK Meeting
and Event Guidelines."

57
00:03:00,813 --> 00:03:03,816
The guidelines
map out practical prevention methods

58
00:03:03,816 --> 00:03:07,896
to put into place when hosting a meeting,
training, or a TCK event.

59
00:03:08,221 --> 00:03:12,659
They cover topics like proper supervision,
rooming guidelines, and more.

60
00:03:12,725 --> 00:03:16,362
Please make sure that if you are planning
an event where TCKs will be present

61
00:03:16,362 --> 00:03:18,064
that you refer to those guidelines

62
00:03:18,064 --> 00:03:21,775
for ensuring you are preparing well
in the area of child safety.

63
00:03:22,302 --> 00:03:23,918
The goal for these guidelines

64
00:03:23,918 --> 00:03:27,373
is to reduce the opportunity
of risk of harm to our children.

65
00:03:27,373 --> 00:03:28,755
If you have questions about

66
00:03:28,755 --> 00:03:31,244
how to implement these guidelines
into your event,

67
00:03:31,244 --> 00:03:34,581
first, contact your leadership
to talk through the questions you have.

68
00:03:34,681 --> 00:03:37,449
And then, if you still need
help, contact me, the PARA.

69
00:03:38,184 --> 00:03:41,921
Again, thank you for all that
you do to help keep our children safe.

70
00:03:42,021 --> 00:03:45,489
I understand that using Go Method,
Safe and Secure training,

71
00:03:45,491 --> 00:03:46,726
and the event guidelines

72
00:03:46,726 --> 00:03:50,830
can add time and effort
to your already extremely busy schedules.

73
00:03:50,897 --> 00:03:55,134
I also know that if we can prevent one
child from experiencing abuse

74
00:03:55,134 --> 00:03:58,471
that could result in lifelong mental
and emotional effects,

75
00:03:58,471 --> 00:04:00,931
the extra time and effort was worth it.

76
00:04:01,307 --> 00:04:04,736
I truly appreciate your efforts,
and I'm always here to help you.
