making ATHLETE HEALTH AND SAFETY paramount.
USA Curling is committed to creating a safe and positive environment for the physical, emotional and social development of all athletes, and to ensuring that it promotes an environment free of misconduct.
Because sport can be a high-risk environment for misconduct, including child physical and sexual abuse, USA Curling has policies and systems in place to protect participants, including SafeSport reporting, Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policies, and the USA Curling Response & Resolution process. While child sexual misconduct is one type of misconduct, it is important to remember that these policies and practices cover many inappropriate behaviors that apply regardless of the ages of the individuals involved in the alleged activity.
Abuse or harassment of any kind will not be tolerated will not be tolerated by USA Curling.
