Safeguarding Policies

Safeguarding policies are guidelines that organizations put in place to protect the health, well-being, and rights of vulnerable individuals—such as children, adults with disabilities, or those at risk of harm. These policies outline how staff should behave, how to recognize signs of abuse or neglect, and what steps to take if concerns arise. Their goal is to create a safe environment, promote respectful interactions, and ensure that any issues are reported and addressed promptly, fostering trust and safety for everyone involved.
