Archdiocese of Detroit Updated Safe Environment Policies
All employees and volunteers of the Archdiocese of Detroit (AOD) must be trained on the warning signs of various types of abuse. In an effort to prevent sexual abuse, bullying and other forms of mistreatment, all individuals working and volunteering in the Archdioces of Detroit are required to complete the linked "Criminal Background Check Disclosure and Authorization Form" and complete specified training.
The AOD uses Virtus, an online platform for all training, monitoring, and data collection. Use the link below to log into your existing Virtus account or to set up a new account. If you have taken Protecting God’s Children in the past, do not create a new account. If you do not remember your username or password, Virtus offers a username and password recovery option.
The Criminal Background Check Disclosure and Authorization Form must be completed and signed in ink. Please submit the original copy of the completed form to your supervisor or the parish office.
If you work or volunteer at another AOD location and have an existing Virtus account, please log into your account, click on the "My Info" box, scroll down to "+Add Role and Location", select your role at Holy Name and add Holy Name Parish as a location.
