Safeguarding Commitments

The well-being, dignity, privacy, and safety of every child must shape how our people, programs, and partners operate.

Child safety

Our public safeguarding commitments

YOUHELPTHEM is building its programs around prevention, appropriate conduct, clear reporting, and careful partnerships.

  • Screen, orient, and supervise people in child-facing roles
  • Use age-appropriate activities and clear adult-child boundaries
  • Avoid private, unsupervised contact and unauthorized transport or communication
  • Obtain appropriate caregiver consent for participation, photos, and information sharing
  • Collect only the personal information needed and limit access to it
  • Respond to concerns promptly and follow applicable reporting obligations
  • Refer clinical, medical, legal, or emergency needs to qualified services

Report an immediate concern

If a child is in immediate danger in the United States, call 911. For a non-emergency concern involving YOUHELPTHEM, contact the organization at info@youhelpthem.org or +1 240 475 6778.

This public summary is not a substitute for the organization’s complete internal safeguarding policy, which should be approved before child-facing programs begin.
