Corpus Christi is blessed with having more than 250 volunteers in our parish.  As you may be aware, every volunteer in the Diocese of Pittsburgh must obtain required diocesan clearances. 
Before you register to volunteer, it is important that you contact Cindy Parry at [email protected]
The Clearances include:

1. PA State Criminal Clearance (which is obtained during the Diocesan registration)

2. PA Child Abuse Clearance

3. FBI clearance*

(*If you have lived in Pennsylvania ten years or longer with no criminal record, you may sign the FBI Waiver.  If you have lived in Pennsylvania less than ten years, or have a criminal record, you must obtain FBI fingerprint clearances.)

4. Protecting God’s Children Training**

        (**Protecting God’s Children training is valid for three years.  You will receive an email when you need to update this training.) 

5. Volunteers who work directly with the children will also need to take the Mandated Reporter Training

All clearances are valid for five years except for the Protecting God’s Children Training, which updates every three years.
If you receive notice from Cindy Parry (Corpus Christi Safe Environment Coordinator) stating that your clearances are due, please update them as soon as possible so that your clearances do not expire.
May God bless you for helping our parish.

If anyone is in imminent danger, call: 911.
