-====== Introduction ====== 
  
-Outdoor Service Guides takes youth protection seriously, and all members must be aware of 
-our relevant policies. Our shared responsibility begins with reading and understanding the 
-OSG policies dealing with youth protection and our ethical practices. It continues with learning 
-about what child abuse is, how it happens, and our responsibility in identifying and reporting it. 
-Finally, it finds us putting these practices into action. Together, these steps make up our Youth 
-Protection Training program. 
- 
-It’s important to note that child abusers will always take advantage of our ignorance. The 
-better we know and understand how to identify the signs and different forms of child abuse, 
-and the more comfortable we are with our role in both preventing and reporting abuse, the 
-better we’ll be able to safeguard our youth. Discussion of these policies should be ongoing, 
-upfront, and frequent. Both adult leaders and parents/guardians should be knowledgeable in 
-the policies and practices of OSG.
