REPORTING ABUSE OR NEGLECT: Our clergy (bishop, priests, and deacons), seminarians, men and women in Consecrated Life, lay staff, and volunteers are trained to recognize and to report any disclosure or suspicion of physical abuse, sexual abuse, sexual assault, or neglect to the appropriate authorities. It is the policy of the Diocese of Lubbock to report any allegation of sexual abuse of a minor or vulnerable adult to law enforcement. Once law enforcement, or the child abuse/vulnerable adult hotline have been called, information regarding an allegation of sexual abuse of a minor should also be reported to Victim Assistance Coordinator, Oscar Reyes at (806) 543-9178 or to diocesan officials.
If you currently work/volunteer with youth/adults, you are required to be up to date with Safe Environment Training. If you have not yet completed your training, please click on the link to register.
