Safeguarding Your Ministry
For most ministries security is seldom given the careful attention and planning necessary to prevent problems before they happen. In fact, many churches are unaware that their systems are setting them up for legal liability, irrecoverable data loss or financial compromise.

How safe is your nursery? Are your volunteers aware of who’s authorized to pick up which child, or which toddler has an allergic reaction to peanut butter? Consider your offering collections. What safeguards do you have in place to make sure every dollar given is actually received? And then there’s data loss. If your church was wiped out by a natural disaster, fire or human error, would you lose your financial and membership records?

With more than 20,000 clients, we know how information management software can make all the difference in your church’s security strategy. Don’t wait until it’s too late to think through your church’s safeguards. Let’s talk.

5 ways to make your church safer:

• Organize volunteer information for quick access to background checks, clearances, licenses, training and more.
• Ensure offering dollars given are received through establishing system checks and balances.
  
• Backup and store important data offsite to avoid critical information loss.
  
• Scan, encrypt, and store check images, viewable only in a secure system.
  
• Improve child security through bar codes, I.D. badges, parent/child matching, kiosk check-in/check-out, and more. Provide systems to check food allergies or conditions in the nursery.
