Safe Environment

 As Christian adults, we have a moral and legal responsibility for the spiritual, emotional and physical well being of minors and vulnerable adults as they participate in activities within or sponsored by our Diocese. Our parish is committed to provide a safe and nurturing environment. Every parish, school and Diocesan agency is responsible for administering the program. Saint Paul implements training, screening, background checks and other procedures to reduce the risk of sexual abuse of children and vulnerable adults.
