Rocky Mountain District Council

Risk Management & Insurance

Risk management involves two areas:  prevention (risk reduction) and response.

Children and Youth Ministries Risk
Management Policy and Procedures

Please click on the link below to download the Risk Management Policy and Procedures manual that the Rocky Mountain District has adopted. This manual contains everything that you will need to put a Risk Management policy into place. The District Presbytery has directed that every District Affiliated Church pastor must obtain these materials and implement this policy as soon as possible. Refusal to develop and adhere to a risk management program could result in non-coverage of liability should such a suit be brought against the church, children's worker, youth worker, or church board. As well, any District Affiliated Church pastor that refuses to cooperate with the district in this matter will be brought before the District Presbytery which may result in his/her removal as pastor. It is imperative that such a program be put in place.
