Youth Protection
Children come into contact with University of Wisconsin-Madison Division of Extension volunteers and employees through various programs, camps, and events. Extension strives to provide a safe and secure learning and working environment for everyone involved in university activities.
In your role as an Extension volunteer, you are required to immediately report any incident of child abuse or neglect to law enforcement or human services.
