Our Call to Protect: First, call 911 and tell the Police!
What is the track record of the Diocese of Tucson?
After, you have called the police, we want to tell you what we do to protect children and vulnerable adults!
The Diocese of Tucson under the leadership of Bishop Weisenburger remains committed to protecting our community against all forms of abuse and responding appropriately. The mission of the Diocese of Tucson "Safe Environment Program" is to ensure the safety of children, young people and vulnerable who have been entrusted to our care in our parishes, schools, religious education classes, and other programs. We pursue this mission in the following ways:
By thoroughly screening and supervising all members of the clergy (priests and deacons), as well as all employees and volunteers who work with children and young people and the vulnerable as part of their ministry.
By providing appropriate training in recognizing and reporting child/adult abuse to appropriate civil and Church authorities.
By holding all members of the clergy, employees and volunteers who work with children, young people and the vulnerable to Christ-centered and professional codes of conduct.
