ATTENTION ALL
SCHOOL VOLUNTEERS
As part of the ongoing
efforts to promote the maintenance of a safe environment, the Diocese of
Harrisburg has adopted identification badges for all persons who have
completed the requirements of our diocesan Youth Protection Program. These
badges are to be signed and carried on the person who is the badge-holder
in a visible manner above the waist any time the person is engaged in a
youth-serving activity or program. If you do not have a Youth Protection ID
Badge you may NOT participate in any youth-serving program or
event. Wearing of badges is mandatory
after October 1, 2009. If
you should lose your issued badge you must report it immediately to the
school or parish office. A cost for
a replacement card may be incurred by the badge holder. The items to be completed in order to obtain
a Diocese of Harrisburg ID Badge can be found here.
