Protecting the Children  •  Protecting the Church  •  Protecting Yourself

Unfortunately, sexual misconduct against children is a growing problem in our country, and yes, even in the Church. Southern Mutual Church Insurance has liability coverage available to protect churches after an incident has occurred. However, we want to help churches prevent the abuse from happening in the first place. We have committed to providing this help in several ways.

First, you can CLICK HERE to download a PDF copy of our new Child and Youth Protection Manual. This manual is full of useful tips your church can use as safeguards for your children. There are also several ready-to-use forms, such as an evaluation checklist and a volunteer worker application. This manual is free and we encourage you to save it and print as many copies as you need.

Second, we have several representatives ready to present our Child and Youth Protection Workshop to your church leaders and volunteers. This hour long workshop gives you all the information you need to set up a new prevention program at your church or enhance the one you already have in place. Please contact Fred Motley at one of the numbers listed below or CLICK HERE to send him an email and make an appointment.

Finally, we are proud to have partnered with Intellicorp Records, Inc. Purchasing a proper nationwide background check on each employee or volunteer involved in your Children or Youth Ministries can be very expensive. Through our partnership with Intellicorp, you can purchase a nationwide background package for the deeply discounted rate of $9.95 each. Simply CLICK HERE to go to the Intellicorp website for more information and ordering instructions.
