Safe Environment

In accordance with the Safe Environment guidelines set by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange, there are certain requirements to be met by all volunteers and employees age 18 and older who are working with Children, Youth and/or Vulnerable Adults.

1. Fingerprinting - through our Diocesan Live Scan System                                          PLEASE NOTE: Police Department or Public School fingerprinting does NOT meet the requirement for the Diocese of Orange.
2. Safe Environment Training - Every volunteer is required to have at least a safe environment course through an in-person training or an online course at https://orange.cmgconnect.org/. Safe Environment training must be completed every three years.

Please stop by the Ministry Center office to pick up a fingerprinting volunteer packet or speak with your Ministry Leader/Director. We look forward to working with you. For Safe Environment information, contact Mary Osinga at 714-637-4360 or mosinga@stnorbertchurch.org.
