Safe Environment

Every child and vulnerable adult deserves a safe environment.

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-old or older – who serve in any capacity with children or vulnerable adults, must complete the Safe Environment requirements as outlined on the DSJ website:

Diocese of San José Safe Environment Requirements

Reporting Misconduct or Sexual Abuse

Reports may also be made confidentially and anonymously at dsj.ethicspoint.com, or the hotline telephone number 1-888-325-7863.
