SAFETY & TRUST
The Care of Every Kamper is Our Highest Calling.
From our earliest days, Kanakuk has been committed to creating an environment where campers and staff are safe, cared for, and protected. Parents place great trust in us, and we take that responsibility with the utmost seriousness.
Safety at Kanakuk means more than policies and procedures. It means cultivating a culture of vigilance, accountability, and Christ-like care. It means training staff, reviewing practices, and continually strengthening systems to ensure that every child and family can place their confidence in us.
OUR COMMITMENT
COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING
Every staff member is trained in the Kanakuk Child Protection Plan
ONGOING REVIEW
Policies and procedures are regularly evaluated and updated to meet or exceed standards.
INDEPENDENT OVERSIGHT
Kanakuk is regularly evaluated through mandatory and voluntary independent audits to ensure our services, facilities, and programs consistently meet the highest standards of safety, integrity, compliance, and transparency.
CHRIST-CENTERED CARE
At the core of safety is our belief that every child is created in the image of God and deserves to be loved, valued, and protected.
WHAT OUR FAMILIES ARE SAYING ABOUT KANAKUK
“Kanakuk stands in the gap for families… and to me, that not only impacts the current generations of Kampers, but it also impacts the world to my parents, it means the world to me, and I know it means the world to my son. And that right there is three generations that have been impacted by Kamp.”
“My kids have collectively gone to Kanakuk for forty or fifty years. Kamp is important to the Brickell family because we have recognized over the years that we’re all just better people for going to Kamp and being associated with Kamp and knowing those that are at Kamp.”
ONWARD IN TRANSPARENCY
We recognize the importance of trust. That is why we provide additional details about our safety commitments and responses. These resources reflect both our ongoing care for families and our willingness to be transparent.
