In response to our call to accountability the Archdiocese of New Orleans provides training for children, clergy, religious, and laity (employees and volunteers) in the prevention of and recognitions of child abuse. As volunteers, we have attended this training and we are tasked with providing your children information on how to respond to situations that put them at risk for abuse.
Each October the CCD program takes a class to discuss this information with your children but you do have the option to opt out; although, I highly recommend that you allow your children to participate. You can review the class material below. To opt out you must complete and return the Parent Refusal of Training Form.
