The Rotary Youth Protection Guide is a comprehensive manual to providing a safe and secure environment for all young people involved in Rotary programs and activities. It includes guidelines for developing, implementing, and maintaining an effective district youth protection program. The methods described in this guide can be modified to comply with local laws and should be used in combination with other locally developed training resources. District governors, district youth protection officers, and all club and district leaders involved in Interact, RYLA, or Rotary Youth Exchange should review this guide. Districts may also apply these guidelines to other youth activities or when working with any vulnerable population.
