VIRTUS: Protecting God's Children

In response to the Charter for Protection of Children and Youth, the Archdiocese of Minneapolis and St. Paul offers training sessions for all adult volunteers having regular and/or unsupervised contact with children and youth. The program specifically addresses how entire Parish and School communities can protect all of God’s children from sexual abuse.

This program is called: VIRTUS: Protecting God’s Children

A typical VIRTUS sessions lasts approximately three hours; It is REQUIRED for all volunteers working with children, youth, and vulnerable adults. Along with the Virtus training session, a background check and online training is required.  There will be a need to re-credential these items every three years online to continue working with children and vulnerable adults.  
To create an account and register for your initial virtus session online please go to virtusonline.org/virtus then choose the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis to get started.
