SAFE ENVIRONMENT
Devoted to Fostering a Culture of Safety
At Bishop DuBourg we are committed to having a safe environment for our students, faculty and families.
It is a policy of the Archdiocese of St. Louis that all employees and volunteers whose service brings them into contact with children must have a regular background check conducted through the Missouri Family Care Safety Registry and the Federal Bureau of Investigation for those who have lived outside Missouri. All employees and volunteers must attend a Protecting God's Children Workshop and sign the Code of Ethical Conduct.
If you have any questions regarding our culture of safety, please contact Dana Schopflin, Business & Finance Manager, at 314-783-4492 or dschopflin@bishopdubourg.org.
Safe Environment Compliance and Workshops
The Archdiocese of St. Louis Safe Environment program requires that all employees, volunteers, religious, priests and deacons who work with or near minors, who would participate in an overnight program with minors, or who would be on a list of persons eligible to work with minors, even if it is not known whether or how often he/she would actually be scheduled, must do the following:
- Attend a Protecting God’s Children workshop and agree to view online training updates every three years thereafter
- Agree to undergo a national background screening that evaluates any history related to criminal charges, and agree to regular updates of the background screening every three months
- Agree to provide a hard copy or electronic signature to the Code of Ethical Conduct for Clergy, Employees and Volunteers Working in Ministry
