Bishop Patrick J. Zurek has expressed his desire to provide a meaningful, viable and practical program for all adults who minister to children. Thus he authorized Praesidium (a company that is on the ground floor of developing safe environment training programs) to provide a such training. This training meets the standards and those “norms” established by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People.
