Report Misconduct

REPORTING CHILD OR YOUTH ABUSE

If you have witnessed or suspect the abuse of a child or young person, immediately report it to local authorities.

For assistance, see state-specific reporting laws.

After reporting the abuse to local authorities, please complete DOMA’s Reporting Form so we know about the incident and can provide trauma-informed care to all parties involved.

Reporting Misconduct by Clergy

Misconduct may include categories of behavior like sexual harassment, discrimination, financial impropriety, abuse of authority, other behavior prohibited by ACNA and DOMA canons or policies, or national/state laws.

Misconduct by Laypersons (non-ordained church staff or other leaders)

Misconduct by a non-ordained staff person or other lay person must be investigated by the Rector and Senior Warden of the church in which the misconduct took place. Please reach out to your Rector and Senior Warden and use the reporting forms so we are aware of the report.

1) Contact your Rector.
2) Complete the Reporting Form.
