Clearances and Training
Most clearances and training can be done online unless otherwise noted. Any certificate or acknowledgement received by mail to your home must be forwarded to the Parish Office. For items which require payment, submit your receipts along with the Check Request Form to the Parish Office for reimbursement. These clearances and training sessions are a combination of state law and archdiocesan requirements. To learn more, visit the Child and Youth Protection website.
If you need assistance completing these requirements, contact the Parish Office.
