Prevent Child Sexual Abuse > Prevention Programs > For Organizations > Youth Sports Organizations | Youth Sports OrganizationsAs a provider of sports programming for youth, your organization can play a critical role in protecting the lives of young athletes. You can help put an end to child sexual abuse by implementing a comprehensive child protection program and training your coaching staff and volunteers. Ask any organization that has experienced a case of sexual abuse and they will tell you that knowing what they know now, there is NO amount of time that would have been too great to spend on prevention and educating their staff and volunteers. As a youth sports organization you have the opportunity to set a new standard within the sports community. Make the commitment for the long term well being of your organization and for the precious children in your care. You can be a leader to your local community as well as a leader among other sports organizations by setting a higher standard and showing that you will do whatever it takes to keep children safe when they are with you.
