USA Gymnastics Clubs Care Campaign

Clubs Care Campaign-clr.jpg

USA Gymnastics has created the Clubs Care Campaign. The Clubs Care Campaign was created to help individuals be more aware of the issue of child sexual abuse, and then suggest ways one can turn that awareness into action. Just recently, USA Gymnastics did a mailing to the clubs providing them with materials to assist in awareness of the societal issue. Awareness+Action=Prevention

The Clubs Care Campaign can help clubs:

·         Develop or revise policies

·         Establish standards of behavior for your staff and volunteers

·         Examine your hiring and training practices

·         Encourage parental monitoring

·         Set up procedures for reporting and handling misconduct complaints

We encourage you to post the campaign logo and link on your website and encourage clubs to increase the safety of all children. The Parent Oriented site is found at USAGymClub.com
