AYSO Safe Have Online Training

Safe Haven is a child and volunteer protection program that was the first of its kind in youth sports.  This program was developed to comply with the Child Protection Act and the Volunteer Protection Act of 1997 by corporate AYSO for all AYSO Regions to follow.

The child protection aspect is intended to stop child abuse, educate or remove its perpetrators, and screen out predators before they get into the program. It includes proactive steps which provide a medium for positive, healthy child development, precluding the outbreak of child abuse in a weak, unfocused, non-empowering environment.

Volunteer protection comes in to play as a result of volunteer training, certification and continuing education. The Volunteer Protection Act of 1997 provides certain legal protections for volunteers who have been trained and certified, and act in accordance with a written job description. Safe Haven has these three elements, giving volunteers the highest degree of protection available under the law.

CONCUSSION AWARENESS

CDC Heads Up Concussion Training is required BY LAW for all coaches, referees, executive members, advisory commission members, section/area/region board and staff members.
