Child Protection Clearances
We are all aware of the grave problem of child abuse that exists within our society. Each of us, especially parish ministers, must do everything possible to help protect those children entrusted to our care.
As a critical part of our safe environment policy for young people, the Diocese of Pittsburgh is creating a centralized electronic database of those people who work and minister in the church, especially those who have contact with minors. To create this secured diocesan database, all members of the clergy, parish employees, catechists and volunteers who have contact with the youth of our parish are now required to create an electronic file by completing an on-line application. This application also will include a national background check.
For more information, please contact the parish office.
