Transportation and Youth Protection
Transportation to and from RYLA is provided by the sponsoring club. Students are not allowed to drive themselves.
Rotary clubs will need to complete a transportation form indicating who will be transporting the students to and from RYLA. Any adult transporting a student will need to be approved by the club's designated Youth Protection Officer.
All drivers must complete a background check regardless of whether they have completed this as part of a different organization. As part of Rotary's youth protection program, RYLA will ensure that:
-
All youth in Rotary programs are protected from abuse and harrassment
-
All Rotarians working with youth are properly screened and certified
-
All Rotarians working with youth are oriented with youth protection policies/procedures
-
All Rotarians working with youth have an understanding of abuse and harrassment and are familiar with reporting procedures
Adults needing a background check should complete the Youth Protection form located here and send to Mark Feynk.
