Safety & Security
Why Safety & Security is our Highest Value for Students & Families
We have the most important message ever to share with students: that God loves them so much that He provided a way through Jesus Christ to receive forgiveness of sin, inherit eternal life, and enjoy a personal relationship with Him that begins on earth and lasts through eternity! We are very intentional about how we share this message and how we combat obstacles that would keep students from hearing it loud and clear.
This is why we place such a high priority on both the PHYSICAL and EMOTIONAL safety of students and families.
SHC FAMILY MINISTRIES COVID POLICIES / PROCEDURES
Masks:
The current Sugar Hill Church Campus policy is that masks are optional.
In Family Ministries:
- Leaders will do the best they can to utilize given space.
- Environments will be regularly cleaned.
- Hand washing / sanitation will be encouraged.
- Families are encouraged to be familiar with CDC guidelines and make wise choices.
Contact Tracing:
The SHC campus-wide COVID practices does not require the facilitation of contact tracing. However, if we know that anyone has had close contact exposure to a positive COVID case, we will do the best we can to notify anyone directly impacted. Families will be advised to review CDC guidelines and take action they deem appropriate.

Our security plan:
To ensure safety and security in our ministry, we follow a Security Plan with practices that include:
- a team of security professionals, ministry professionals, and reliable adult volunteer leaders.
- the use of uniformed and/or plain-clothed security personnel.
- policies that serve to protect the physical and emotional well-being of students and adults.
- an electronic student check-in process.
- an extensive background and screening process for adult volunteer leaders.
If you have any questions or concerns about the safety and security of students, please contact Student Ministries Staff immediately at 770.945.5092.
