Child Protection Policy

The Daughters of Charity are committed to ensuring the safety, well-being, and protection of children in all their programs and activities. This Child Protection Policy aims to provide a clear framework for preventing and addressing any form of abuse, exploitation, or neglect. The policy ensures that all staff, volunteers, and affiliated personnel undergo thorough background checks and receive ongoing training to recognize and respond to child protection concerns. The organization pledges to create an environment where children feel safe, valued, and supported, free from fear of harm. Any allegations of abuse or misconduct will be taken seriously and addressed promptly with a commitment to transparency and accountability. The policy underscores the importance of informed consent, ensuring that both children and their guardians understand their rights and the services provided. Additionally, it outlines procedures for reporting concerns and creating accessible channels for children to voice any issues they may encounter. Daughters of Charity actively collaborate with local authorities, community groups, and other child protection agencies to ensure the highest standards of care and safeguarding. Regular audits and reviews will be conducted to assess the effectiveness of the policy and make necessary improvements. Ultimately, the Daughters of Charity are dedicated to fostering an environment where children can grow, learn, and thrive in a safe and nurturing space.
