FMA Child Protection Policy
Rooted in the mission of Christ, the Good Shepherd, the FMA Child Protection Policy is a heartfelt commitment to safeguard children from abuse, exploitation, neglect, discrimination, and harm. This policy serves as a strong pledge to be a voice for the voiceless, guided by professional and ethical standards that establish clear systems, guidelines, and procedures across all FMA institutions. Inspired by our Charism and recent teachings, and recognizing the increasing threats to children’s safety, this policy urgently calls for prevention, protection, preservation, participation, and promotion of every child's holistic development. It reflects our deep responsibility to create a safe environment where children’s rights are defended and their well-being prioritized. By fostering a common understanding and accountability among staff, the policy empowers all representatives to act in good faith, ensuring that our loving commitment to the welfare and dignity of children is lived out in every action and decision.
