Texas Law requires anyone who has reasonable cause to believe a child is being abused, neglected or exploited to report it
Baylor University is committed to fostering a safe environment for minor participants of youth activities and programs. Faculty, staff, students, and external staff therefore are expected to hold themselves to the highest standards of conduct when interacting with youth.
Youth programs involving non-enrolled minors are a vital part of Baylor University’s mission and community engagement. The Youth Safety Office supports these efforts by establishing youth safety standards, providing education and training, and conducting risk assessments and compliance monitoring. These activities align with the University Youth Protection Policy and all applicable regulatory statutes to ensure the highest level of safety and accountability.
INCIDENT REPORTING
Any illness, medical issue, accident, or injury that affects a minor’s health or safety must be reported immediately. The Program Director is responsible for submitting the Youth Program Incident Report Form without delay. All relevant sections of the form must be filled out, and a copy should be retained for internal records.
For questions or assistance with submitting the form, please contact Reggie Miller at Protectionofminors@baylor.edu.

Baylor University extends beyond the classroom in its mission to educate young men and women for worldwide leadership and service through its summer program offerings.
