Member Protection Information Officer

Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO)

MPIO’s are an integral part of all levels of Australia sport, especially grassroots sport. The MPIO role is to listen to issues raised by members before triaging and referring them to the right place to find a resolution. The MPIO is responsible for providing information about a person’s rights, responsibilities and options to an individual making a complaint or raising a concern under relevant member protection and child safeguarding policies.  

The Sapphire Coast Outrigger Canoe Club (SCOCC) has a zero-tolerance policy for any kind of abuse, bullying, harassment or discrimination. The safety and wellbeing of our members is central to our goal of providing an enjoyable and rewarding experience at our Club.
