The Diocese of San José remains steadfast in our commitment to the safety and well-being of our children and vulnerable adults. We recognize that clergy, diocesan personnel, volunteers, parents, and youth play a critical role in safety and prevention. Bearing this in mind, it is important that we are all aware of our Safe Environment requirements and responsibilities as delineated in diocesan procedures, policies, and codes of conduct.
All clergy and diocesan personnel, as well as adult volunteers – 18 years of age or older – who serve in any capacity with children or vulnerable adults, must complete the Safe Environment requirements as outlined on the DSJ website including a background check with fingerprinting and online training.
