Attention Volunteers

As part of the Diocesan Safe Environment Program, all parish volunteers must be in compliance with the Safe Environment Policy. To be in compliance means the following:

• Complete an application on the diocesan database
• A criminal background check — this is processed automatically upon completion of the diocesan database application.
• A Pennsylvania Child Abuse Clearance must be done
• The Code of Conduct and CPSL booklets must be read and signed by you
• You must attend a Protecting God’s Children workshop
