Safe Environment Committee

According to the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People, each diocesan entity provides for youth protection, training, criminal background screening, and safe environment protocols.  In the Diocese of Syracuse, the Safe Environment Committee and its Chairperson have been appointed by the Diocesan Bishop to research, recommend, and implement a program by which the Diocese of Syracuse will comply with these mandates.

The Bishop has appointed officials of diocesan departments as members of this ex-officio group.  The Diocesan Bishop, in consultation with the Diocesan Review Board, supervises the work of the Safe Environment Committee.
