Announcement
Safeguard the Children/VIRTUS Training
We are well into the school year and special thoughts turn to ensuring that extra safety precautions are taken while our children are at school and engaged in
extra-curricular activities. Throughout the year, we are conscious of taking great care of our children and youth, in and around the home and in our neighborhoods. One
step toward that end is to provide VIRTUS Training, required of all who work with and around children at Archdiocesan sponsored or supported activities, as directed by
the USCCB Charter on the Protection of Children and Youth, and the Los Angeles Archdiocesan policies and guidelines of the Safeguard the Children Program.
VIRTUS is being offered again at Good Shepherd Church this year. All who have not taken the training and work with and/or around children and youth
in a volunteer or paid position must take the training and/or sign the Code of Conduct Form.
The Safeguard the Children Committee is pleased to announce another series of VIRTUS Training sessions for those who work with and around children and youth in the
Good Shepherd Parish and others who may be interested. As you are all aware, VIRTUS is an important part of the Safeguard the Children Program, one of the key
elements of the USCCB's Charter to Protect Children and Youth. If you or anyone you know who works with children and youth in our Parish have not taken the Training,
your are encouraged to register right away for one of the sessions noted below. Please contact our certified Facilitator, Patty Formeca at (310.271.9745) if you have
questions. Support the effort to safeguard our children.
We hope to see you at one of the interesting and enlightening VIRTUS sessions.
