Praesidium: Keeping Our Youth Safe

At the YMCA of Muncie, protecting children is a responsibility we share and a commitment that guides our work every day. As we pursue Praesidium Accreditation, we are strengthening our abuse prevention practices and building a culture of safety where everyone understands expectations, speaks up about concerns, and helps keep children safe.

  • Consumer Safety

    At the YMCA of Muncie, the safety and well-being of every child and teen in our care is one of our highest responsibilities. Across the YMCA movement, child protection is a shared commitment, and we use recognized prevention practices, training, supervision, and clear expectations to help create environments where youth can learn, grow, and thrive.

  • Youth Safety Guidelines

    These Youth Safety Guidelines are intended to give youth, parents, and guardians a clear understanding of the standards we expect in YMCA programs and interactions. This is a living document and may be updated as guidance, training, laws, and best practices evolve.
