The Safeguarding Program is Safe Environment Education for anyone working in any capacity with children. The full name of the program is: Safeguarding All of God’s Family. The goal of the Safeguarding All of God’s Family program is to protect our children and all in the church family from sexual abuse and related dangers.

The Church is different today because of the courage of victims / survivors who have come forward, told their painful stories, and worked diligently to implement initiatives designed to guard against anything like this ever happening again.
Complete information and scheduling for the program is administered via the Archdiocese of Milwaukee website’s safeguarding section. There is content specific to:
