SafeParish - New Child Protection Platform
ALL PARISH VOLUNTEERS! The Archdiocese is currently implementing the transition to SafeParish (from Virtus) as the new platform for Child Protection training and compliance. SafeParish is an organization that specializes in training and education solutions for organizations world-wide. They have 20+ years of experience in providing child safe environment training programs. SafeParish will continue to work with our current background check provider – Selection.com. Once all the local safe environment coordinators have been registered on the SafeParish website, set up as local site administrators, and trained on the SafeParish website and database, SafeParish will send emails to all current VIRTUS account holders with instructions for registering on the SafeParish website. If you are up-to-date on your monthly bulletins and in “active” status, all training and background information in your current VIRTUS account will be transferred to SafeParish. No new live training through SafeParish will be required if you have completed live child protection training through VIRTUS. Ongoing child protection training will still be required for all volunteers and employees—it will consist of quarterly interactive video-based training instead of monthly bulletins. Please log in to your Virtus account and be sure that all of your information is correct, including your email address. If you have questions, please contact Mary Montour, St. John Safe Environment Coordinator. The Office of Safe Environment indicated that the email and registration process would begin sometime after July 1. More information will be sent out as it becomes available through the Archdiocese.
