Dear friend,

As I have led the work of the Sexual Abuse Advisory Group over the past year, one thing has become clear. The vast majority of churches want to get the issue of abuse right, but often don’t because they lack confidence or competence. 

That’s why the upcoming Caring Well Conference is so important. We’ve designed this event to equip churches with critical information and practical tools that will empower them to confront the crisis of abuse.

Some of the topics we’ll cover include:

• Understanding the long-term effects of trauma on mental health
• Skillful screening processes for staff and volunteers
• Caring well for friends and family who have experienced abuse
• What your student ministry, children’s ministry, and parents can do to protect kids
• Practical steps for abuse prevention 
• Practical steps for caring for the abused
• ​Addressing domestic violence and other non-sexual forms of abuse

Our team has worked hard to ensure that this conference will be insightful, challenging, and eye-opening for you and others who attend. Through keynotes, breakout sessions, and panel discussions, you’ll be equipped with the tools you need to confront abuse and defend the vulnerable in your church and community. 

Tickets for this event are selling fast, and our last event on sexual abuse sold out well ahead of time. Prices increase in just one week, so register now to save $50 off our final prices! You can also save an additional 15% by using code CARINGWELL15 when you register.

I hope you’ll register today to save your seat in Dallas.

Sincerely,

Phillip Bethancourt, Executive Vice President
Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission
