As a youth organization of the Protestant Church in the Rhineland, we are committed to implementing the quality standards of Protestant youth work.
An active part of these standards is the prevention of sexualized violence. To this end, we have developed a protection concept that aims to create a culture of mindfulness and transparency in our cooperation through pedagogical and institutional measures, and to minimize opportunities for perpetrators as far as possible.
In the event of suspected sexualized violence against children, young people, or those in need of protection, the trusted contact persons of the Protestant Church in the Rhineland are the first point of contact. Please do not hesitate to contact them if you suspect or have evidence of such abuse. They are familiar with support and assistance options and will advise you accordingly.
Trusted contact persons of the Regional Church Office of the Protestant Church in the Rhineland are:
Ms. Erika Georg-Monney, +49 211-4562-471
