Child Safety and Protection
-
At Our Lady of Sorrows, we strive to provide a safe environment for children and to prevent their abuse in any form. All volunteers need to sign a CORI form, the Code of Conduct, and attend a two hour Protecting God's Children training.
Our safety team includes Joanne Michalek, Sue Molinda, Mary Dee Glynn and Lisa Uebelacker who help our parish to create a safe environment for our children.

Protecting God's Children
All volunteers who will be working with children and young adults are required to take a two-hour Protecting God's Children training session. Volunteers can attend a session offered at OLOS or one at a different parish within the Archdiocese.
OLOS PGC Sessions
Call the parish office to find out when our next PGC session will be offered.

CORI Forms and Code of Conduct
All volunteers are required to sign a Code of Conduct form once and to complete a CORI form annually. CORI forms must be turned in to an OLOS staff member in person so that the staff member can verify the information by checking a government-issued photo I.D. Please turn in your CORI form during Parish Office hours (Sundays: 12:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and Mondays thru Thursdays: 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.) or contact the parish to arrange an alternate time (781-784-2265, parish@olossharon.org).
