WRAP MINISTRY VOLUNTEER CODE OF CONDUCT

 Volunteers practice the Golden Rule, to love those whom they serve. Above all else, volunteers do no harm:
• They treat everyone with the dignity deserved as persons created in the image of God.
• They will not discriminate or refuse service to persons who are desirous of support, irrespective of
their race, ethnicity, or culture.

 Volunteers will ensure that all communications with the family, including verbal, written, or electronic,
remain confidential. The exception to this is when human life is imperiled, or violence is threatened.

 Volunteers will refrain from any sexual misconduct with persons and families in need of care. Misconduct
is defined as any form of sexual touch or contact, romantic relationships, seductive speech, nonverbal
behaviors of sexual nature, excessive inquiry about sexual issues and problems, and using their relationship
as a means to pursue personal sexual gratification. These sexual behaviors are always unethical, even when
there is implied consent from the person or families in need.

 Volunteers will not solicit payment or obtain personal rewards for the services that they facilitate.

 Volunteers will function under the supervision and direction of the Family Advocate of LBCC WRAP
Ministry. Family Advocates, under the next level above.

 Volunteers are committed to promoting the common good, both within the body of Christ and in their
overall community.
• "In the same way, let your light shine before others so that they may see your good deeds and glorify
the Heavenly Father." - Matthew 5:1

 For Family Advocates - Family Advocates will not abandon the Foster Family or terminate services without
appropriate notice and preparation. Termination of services occurs when the goals have been reached or
when the Foster Family no longer desires such services, or some other mutually agreed situation.
