Minors programs requirements

The University of Georgia is committed to providing a safe environment for all minors participating in programs and activities on campus or otherwise affiliated with the university. A Policy for Programs and Activities Serving Minors is in effect and extends to all university-sponsored programs/activities, as well as any third-party organizations that utilize university facilities for programs and activities serving minors (defined as persons younger than age 18) who are not UGA students.

The policy may be found at programsforminors.uga.edu/policy.

Each program/activity must meet the following minimum requirements: approval, annual registration, background investigations, training and records retention. All programs/activities serving minors must be approved and developed at the ­departmental/unit level, with program administrators determining content and training appropriate to the ­program/activity.

Contact Brian Stone, the policy owner, at programsforminors@uga.edu or 706-542-7255 if you have any questions or need additional information.
