Child Protection
The Child Protection Policy, which applies throughout Shambhala, is an essential measure to ensure that the growing minds and bodies of our children are respected, and that each child is protected from sexual abuse. A Child Protection Policy Working Group has been formed to make recommendations on how best to prevent child abuse in Shambhala. This page hosts recordings from two webinars focused on child protection in Shambhala.
Individuals assigned responsibility for working with children in Shambhala are strongly encouraged to watch the recordings below. Any thoughts or questions can be directed to the Child Protection Policy Working Group at [email protected].
