Thank you very much for being in compliance with the Rockford Diocese Safe Environment Program for volunteers "Keeping OUR PROMISE to Protect".

Some volunteers are not yet fully compliant due to the fact that they are missing the Protecting God's Children training, VIRTUS. 
 

• The Virtus online training takes approximately 1 hour, but if needed, you can leave the program unfinished and resume where you left off at a later time. (Be sure to save your user name and password to log back in)

• After completing the course please print out a certificate and turn it into the parish office, or place it in the "Safe Environment" box in our church Narthex, or email it to SAFE@stpatrickmchenry.org

• Start by clicking on "Begin the Registration Process" and scroll to select "Rockford, IL"

 

• If you are unable to print the certificate, the parish office can do that for you: simply send us an e-mail to parishoffice@stpatrickmchenry.org to let us know.  Thank you.  

• If you don't have a PC or are unable to conduct the training online: volunteers are welcome to use one of our computers at the parish office.  Please call 815-385-0025 in advance so we save you a spot at the volunteer's desk.

• We also offer "Live Training Sessions" of the Protecting God's Children training a few times a year.  Please call us or check our bulletin for upcoming dates.
