Virtus

What is Virtus Training?

To maintain the highest level of safety not only for our children and our volunteers, St. Joseph Parish continues to adopt a screening process for all employees and volunteers who have access to our students and parish youth.

"Virtus" is a Latin word that means, "valor or moral excellence. "The VIRTUS Program assists our Church in being a safe haven for children and a messenger for preventing child sexual abuse within the Church and society in general.

If you are 18 years of age or older and you wish to volunteer in our parish as a volunteer or catechist, you must attend one 3-hour VIRTUS training session.
