Child Protection Training
The Archdiocese of Cincinnati utilizes SafeParish™ as the platform for child protection training. Every person in a position which requires contact or interaction with youth or vulnerable adults must complete the SafeParish edition of Protecting Children from Sexual Abuse training before they can work or volunteer within any of the parishes, schools, or institutions in the archdiocese. In addition, there will be required ongoing child protection training for all archdiocesan volunteers and employees that will consist of quarterly interactive video-based training.
