As Christian adults, we have a moral and legal responsibility and are entrusted by God with    the spiritual, emotional and physical well-being of minors and vulnerable adults. As they participate in activities within or sponsored by our Diocese, our parishes and our schools,           it is our responsibility and commitment to provide  an environment which is safe and nurturing.

Communicating concerns means telling someone when you are uncomfortable with a situation or if you suspect abuse. It means paying attention to your own feelings and not waiting until it is too late. Only by communicating concerns can we use our knowledge to protect children. Even if abuse is not occurring, it is important to let others know when you have concerns.
