Child Protection Program/VIRTUS

Many volunteer opportunities require the particpant to complete the child protection compliance process.  This process includes 4 parts and can take a few weeks.

In accordance with the Archdiocese of Washington Child Protection Policy, all school volunteers who have substantial contact with children must submit to a criminal background check (including fingerprinting) and attend a VIRTUS training session. This includes, but is not limited to, chaperoning field trips, school functions, classroom assistance, and lunch/playground duty.
