Virtus Safe Environment Training
As a community of faith, we believe that the prevention of child sexual abuse begins with each person. Increased awareness and a willingness to take action are steps for every person to take to eradicate abuse in our society, in the community, in the neighborhood, and in the family.
All those who minister (volunteers, employees and clergy )in the Diocese of Oakland are to be educated about the nature of child sexual abuse, how it is perpetrated, how to report it, and strategies for prevention. Training is mandatory for all who minister - first before starting work or volunteering and then every three years thereafter.
All parish volunteers, 18 years and older must complete the online training module where you will fulfill the training requirement of the Safe Environment Project as well as reading and signifying agreement with the Diocesan Policy of Expectation for Ministry to minors.
