  • Increasing awareness of potentially harmful situations through the VIRTUS Protecting God's Children adult training workshops.
  • Implementing a Diocesan Code of Conduct for Those Working with Minors which outlines acceptable and unacceptable behaviors for all clergy, employees and volunteers.
  • Evaluating background checks for relevance to the employee’s or volunteer’s position.
  • Providing continuing education through the VIRTUS Web site.
All volunteers and paid employees must meet Safe Environment Requirements.
