Coaches and teachers who conduct youth sport day camps should take note of recent developments in the area of child and youth sex abuse. This session will focus on a recent survey of five day camp administrators involving over 300 children which indicated camps are not offering written policy or orientation for employees. Best practices for implementing policy, orientation, reporting abuse, and insuring the camp will be discussed. (CEU)
