Safety in AYSO

Safe Haven

Every AYSO Region is required to have a Child and Volunteer Protection Advocate (CVPA). This person is responsible for making sure the region is following the procedures of AYSO's Safe Haven program.

Safe Haven has been put in place to protect AYSO players and the volunteers who serve them. It requires that each AYSO volunteer complete and eSign a volunteer application each and every year, agreeing to background checks and to abide by the philosophies and policies of AYSO.
