Updated Protection of Minors Policy Now In Effect

Learn more about these changes, including new requirements for creating and running programs with minors.


Earlier this month, the Protection of Minors Participating in Youth Programs Policy (formerly, the Supervision of Minors Policy) was updated to offer a stronger standard for providing for and protecting minors in youth programs and to better reflect what is required of a program and those involved.

If you or your department interact with minors in any way, please view the attached info flyer for the most notable changes. Additionally, you can visit eorc.olemiss.edu/minors to view the policy, access training materials, and register your program with EORC.

For more information, please contact Grey Young at gkyoung1@olemiss.edu or 662-915-1570.

Thank you.
