Young Leader Code of Conduct
Adsafe has recently released a version of the Code of Conduct for use ONLY with Young Leaders who are under the age of 18.
The Young Leader Code of Conduct outlines a set of expected behaviours for teenagers under 18 who are leaders or assistant leaders in a variety of church-related settings. These settings might include and are not limited to: Sabbath Schools; Pathfinders; Adventurers; Playgroups; Vacation Bible School/Holiday programs; Summer Camps; and Big Camps.
Signed copies of the Young Leaders Code of Conduct do not need to be returned to Adsafe and can be kept on file locally.
Once a Young Leader turns 18, they are then considered an adult and will need to agree to and sign the full Code of Conduct document (see The Code of Conduct section above) for continued involvement in child-related activities.
Pathfinder Code of Conduct
The Australian Union Conference (AUC) has released a Code of Conduct for Pathfinder Clubs to use with their pathfinder members (ages 10-16). This document is available on the AUC Pathfinder website.
