Protecting God’s Children Workshop

To ensure our children are in a safe environment, our school requires the following safe environment compliance procedures to be followed before our volunteers are allowed to work with children:

• Complete an online background check through Selection.com, known as Fastrax (school will provide additional information soon)
• Read, understand, and acknowledge a Pastoral Code of Conduct (school will provide additional information soon)
• Attend a 3-hour Virtus live training program entitled “Protecting God’s Children” within the next 30 days

For “first time registrants” - go to www.virtusonline.org to begin the registration process and click “FIRST TIME REGISTRANT”.

Be sure to choose “Paterson Diocese-Child Protection”. Please use your legal name when registering.
