The guide prepared collaboratively between Catholic Mutual, the Archdiocesan Office for the Protection of Children & Youth, and the Office of Marriage, Family & Youth, is meant to assist anyone working with youth in the Church to protect youth, youth leaders, parishes and the Archdiocese.
This guide does not replace discussion with Safe Environment Program Liaisons or Catholic Mutual. These documents can also be found by logging into the Catholic Mutual Site, CMG Connect.
