Child sexual abuse can happen to anyone at anytime. And we are not helpless to prevent it. We need to be aware of warning signs, control access to our children, and develop an effective way to safeguard them from offenders. PROTECTING GOD'S CHILDREN...is a national program for adults. It's goal is to increase awareness of the ways that children may be at risk and to present a plan that offers protection and safety for them.
This program is a REQUIREMENT.....FOR ALL WHO WISH TO SERVE IN OUR PARISH IN ANY CAPACITY
