Ibsa resources & consultation

IBSA is committed to helping member churches provide safe environments for children and vulnerable adults.

No church wants to think that abuse will happen within their congregation. But without safeguards, it can, and does happen.

Churches should be well prepared to:

  • prevent abuse
  • report abuse
  • respond if abuse happens

We are ready to assist each church with resources, training, and consultation so pastors and ministry leaders are confident that their church is a safe church.
