The Diocese of Austin requires all clergy, religious, seminarians, employees and all volunteers serving in ministry to minors or the vulnerable, must attend a workshop when their current workshop expires.  All persons must be EIM compliant to volunteer or work within the Diocese.  Additionally, anyone new to the parish, wishing to serve in a ministry here, must fill out and submit an online volunteer application/background check form and attend a workshop in order to be compliant with diocesan EIM policies.
 
How to report an incident of concern:  The Diocese of Austin is committed to preventing harm from happening to any of our children or vulnerable adults.  If you are aware of sexual or physical abuse and/or neglect of a child or vulnerable adult, state requires you to report that information to local law enforcement or the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services at (800) 252-5400 or www.dfps.state.tx.us.  Addtionally, if the suspected abuse is by clergy or an employee or volunteer of any diocesan parish, school or agency, a Confidential Notice of Concern should be submitted to the diocesan Ethics and Integrity in Ministry Office at (512) 949-2400.  The Confidential Notice of Concern can be found at www.austindiocese.org (click on the link HOW TO REPORT ABUSE).  Reports may be made anonymously.
