At Henderson Hills Baptist Church, we take the safety of those in our care very seriously. All leadership is charged with caring for our congregation and those visiting our campus.
Recognizing & Reporting Training helps our leaders know what to look for in order to prevent child and vulnerable adult abuse. Our Caring Well Ministry, with the support and leadership of our Elder Council, will require all leaders to repeat this training every three years. The leader of the ministry you are involved in will communicate to you when it is time for you to repeat this process.
Who must complete the training?
Recognizing & Reporting (R&R) is a mandatory qualification for every person working with children (birth - 5th grades), students (6th grade - college), and vulnerable adults at Henderson Hills. It is also required for Adult Community Group leaders, Worship Ministry volunteers, Hillside Café volunteers and all Ministries of Jesus Ministry volunteers.

What else do I need to know?
After you have completed the four-part process above, the information you have provided will be kept confidential. It will be used to run a background check (unless you are under the age of 16). The leader of the ministry where you are desiring to serve will contact you and let you know that your background check is clear. You and the ministry leader can then figure out where and when you will serve.
If you have any questions about this process or any problems with the online forms, please contact Jennifer Burkholder.
