When allegations or disclosures of abuse emerge within a ministry context, the response in the first hours and days can significantly impact victims, families, congregations, and the long-term health of the ministry itself. In this session, Jeff Dalrymple provides practical guidance and a structured response framework for navigating abuse-related crises with wisdom, compassion, and integrity. Participants will learn key principles for immediate response, communication considerations, caring for victims and families, organizational responsibilities, and avoiding common mistakes that can unintentionally cause additional harm.
