Safe and Sacred is the child protection program for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis. The training program is completely conducted online and includes processing of a background check and Code of Conduct. The purpose of the “Safe and Sacred” program is to provide easier access to child protection training for clergy, employees, and volunteers. It allows us to broaden the focus of the training to increase awareness of all forms of child abuse. Safe and Sacred includes an assessment that must be taken and passed to ensure that training content is learned and can be applied.

Who is Required to Sign Up for this Program? Safe and Sacred Training is a requirement for all volunteers regardless of their ministry area. If you are 18 years of age or older and you volunteer in any ministries here at St. Mark, you must comply with all the requirements prior to volunteering.
