All new ministers fill out an application on the diocesan web page at diocesetucson.org and submit fingerprints for a background check All ministers serving in the parish are expected to abide by the Code of Conduct and the Guidelines for the Prevention of and Response to Sexual Misconduct and attend an educational meeting every 3 years. Our response is based on the Arizona Mandatory Reporting Law of abuse of a minor. ARS 13-3620.
CODE OF CONDUCT
To Prevent
New Volunteers are given a reference check, a criminal background check and fingerprinted. The check is renewable every 5 years. Ongoing education/formation is renewed yearly usually in January.
To Recognize
To be observant & aware of the warning signs of abuse. Physical or emotional stress may lead to aggression or withdrawal in an abused child. Elders in our community may be exploited or abused as well. Be informed and compassionate about this problem.
To Respond
Ministers will respond to any misconduct by calling 911 to report observed or suspected assault or abuse. Follow up by making a report to the pastor or the Safe Environment Rep.
Our words, actions and demeanor reflect dignity, respect and the love of Christ for all.
