Youth Participant Code of Conduct
Page: 2 of 2
If a problem of any kind occurs during an NBCC-sponsored youth event,
the Youth Participant is to immediately go to a trusted adult to discuss the matter.
Youth and parents understand that failure to agree to and abide by the Youth Participant Code of Conduct will result in the Youth
Participant being barred from participation in any NBCC-sponsored youth event.
Youth Participant Sanctions for Non-Compliance
For the most part NBCC never has direct responsibility for
chaperoning the conduct of youth participants in its programming and events. NBCC relies
on group leaders from participants' home dioceses or other chaperones to ensure that
every young person attending an NBCC-sponsored event is aware of the Youth Code of Conduct
and the sanctions for non-compliance. Group leaders, chaperones, and/or parents bear the
responsibility for sharing this information with youth participants. Their failure to do
so does not excuse any inappropriate behavior on the part of youth participants nor does
it affect NBCC's ability to levy sanctions. Youth participants are held to the Youth Code
of Conduct regardless.
If a young person violates the Youth Code of
Conduct, any or all of the following sanctions may be implemented:
-
Reporting of misconduct to local authorities, if
the violation in any way violates local ordinances or laws.
-
Dismissal of the youth participant from the NBCC
event or programs.
