The Sponsor will keep a copy of the form and will forward the original to the district LWML officer, as determined by the district, for record-keeping purposes. • Background checks must be run on each adult who will be in a mentor position with the group. Paperwork must be kept by the Sponsor of the group. • Sponsor will maintain a copy of LWML's Policy on Sexual Misconduct with group records and act according to policy protocol in the event of an incident. • Forms listed above may be obtained from the LWML Office or downloaded and printed from the Teen Resources section of the LWML web site. Membership • The materials and items available for Friends Into Serving Him are geared toward the 14-17 year old female. Individual groups may establish their own guidelines on the specific ages within their group up thru age 17.• When a young woman reaches the age of 18, she is no longer eligible to be a teen Friends Into Serving Him member but would become a member of the LWML.
