@clara_bow@watchkeep@AlyssaDegraff@MinistrySafe Clara, it seems there is confusion around this topic and the role MinistrySafe plays. If you are open to conversation, I’d be happy to connect with you directly so we can discuss this. DM me if you’d like to connect.
@ReadsA_lot @watchkeep@electriclady217@AlyssaDegraff Jennifer, we recommend the 2-adult rule, along with policies that limit or forbid time alone with a single child.
@watchkeep@electriclady217@AlyssaDegraff Interesting. Who is the source of your information? We have NEVER represented the defendant in CSA litigation, EVER. To the contrary, we’ve provided litigation representation to hundreds of CSA victims.
@petefrompitt@watchkeep@electriclady217@AlyssaDegraff I think you’ve misunderstood who we are and what we do.
Our mission is, and has ALWAYS been, to prevent child sexual abuse in church and ministry programs.
This has been our focus for three decades.
Our advice concerning RESPONDING to an allegation has ALWAYS been victim-centric.
@Lobergail@watchkeep@AlyssaDegraff@MinistrySafe Hi Dave-
MinistrySafe provides training, sample policies and forms, and background checks to ministries who access these resources in a ‘self-help’ context. We have no way of verifying which specific resources are accessed by a ministry, including Gateway.
@AlyssaDegraff@watchkeep Hi Alyssa- I’m currently out of the office celebrating my husband’s birthday. I’ve asked my assistant to set up a time for us to speak so I can answer your questions when I return early next week.
DM me with contact information if this works for you.
@watchkeep@AlyssaDegraff Amy- I’m pretty certain that everything written online about you isn’t entirely accurate, and the same is true here, about me. What you highlighted is factually inaccurate. I’m assuming you would welcome an opportunity to get first-hand information? If so, DM me.
@watchkeep@AlyssaDegraff@MinistrySafe Amy, your statement about MinistrySafe directly contradicts our mission, and I’d like to know what led you to this opinion. Would you be willing to discuss this directly with me? DM me if you’d like to connect.
@LDubs50 @ThigpenTiffany@WillyRice Hi Laura- to what situation do you refer? I'd like to better understand your post, and specific context. I can be reached at [email protected].
@petefrompitt@ThigpenTiffany@WillyRice Peter- I'm interested in understanding what you encountered in our training that lead you to believe that MinistrySafe exists to 'protect the organization'? Are you willing to discuss this with me? I can be reached at [email protected].
@dalethompson41@ThigpenTiffany@WillyRice Milton, why do you believe our 'first priority' is limiting liability? Are you willing to discuss this with me directly; I'm interested in understanding how you came to this conclusion. I can be reached at [email protected].
@ThigpenTiffany@WillyRice Tiffany, I saw your recent post stating that MinistrySafe is “unsafe for survivors”. I’m interested to understand why you have this opinion.
Are you willing to discuss your perspective with me directly? You may reach me at [email protected].
@johnnarae John: I saw your recent post stating that MinistrySafe is not ‘survivor-centric’. I’m interested to understand why you have this opinion. Are you willing to discuss your perspective with me directly?
@oldreepicheep Tim: I have read your occasional posts stating that MinistrySafe is not ‘victim-friendly’. I think you may have misunderstood what services we provide. Are you willing to discuss your perspective with me directly? I am ALWAYS open to constructive discussion.
@hlgriffin In regard to your recent posts critical of MinistrySafe: are you willing to discuss your criticism with me directly? I am always open to constructive discussion.

Sadly, ministries don’t commonly understand how to get the BEST VALUE from Background Checks, or how Background Check providers commonly LIMIT the data reported.
