CAP SESSIONS

We can be sure that we love God’s children when we love God and do what He has commanded. 1 John 5:2

The Office of Safe Environment for Children, Youth and Adults is announcing CAP (Child Assault Prevention) sessions.

CAP is the safe environment training program for adults who have regular contact with minors. Attendance is required

in order to comply with the USCCB’s Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People. The policy of the diocese

is that adults will attend CAP once every five years.
CAP 1 teaches attendees to recognize child abuse and neglect and how to report to the proper authorities. Adults are

taught that children have the right to be safe, strong and free. CAP 1 is for new volunteers and employees
CAP 2 is No More Bullies, No More Victims and is a workshop on bullying awareness and bullying prevention.

Cyberbullying is also addressed. Both sessions are 90 minutes.
Adults must attend CAP 1 before attending CAP 2. After five years, adults have the option of

attending CAP 1 again if they prefer.
