Where Policy Meets Practice in Prevention Systems: Insights from the 2026 Praesidium Report

The 2026 Praesidium Report reveals a consistent pattern across organizations. Most have policies in place, training completed, and expectations defined, yet gaps begin to surface when those systems are examined in practice. Across more than 800 organizations, policies are widely reported, but far fewer are followed consistently in day-to-day operations. At the same time, incident data shows risk is not disappearing. It is shifting into less visible environments and increasingly into digital interactions.

This raises a different question for leadership. If systems are in place, why does exposure continue? This session examines those findings and what they mean for how prevention systems function under real conditions.

Session Focus:
– Why policy presence does not equate to consistent practice
– How risk is shifting, including increases in digital and non-contact abuse
– What organizational data reveals about gaps in supervision and accountability
– Where leaders should focus to better identify and manage risk
