Creating a Safe Environment (CASE)
Ensuring the safety of our children and vulnerable populations is a priority for Peace of Christ Parish and the Diocese of Rochester.
CASE Training Procedures
Please Note: Creating A Safe Environment (CASE) training and certification is a 3-step process.
Step 1: Online Training
- Volunteers train online through the Online CASE Training for Adults. (All volunteers under the age of 70 must be retrained every three years.) If you will be a volunteer driver, you must complete this DMV Volunteer Driver Check Form. Drivers must complete this form each year and return to the parish office.
- PLEASE NOTE: If you are unable to complete training online, you may schedule a training in person with Luke Nolan (585-288-5000, ext. 121 or [email protected]).
- Volunteers must sign the
Diocesan Volunteer Code of Conduct for Adults AND return it to the Parish Office.
- NEW Volunteers must create their own account in the Online Learning Center to access CASE.
Step 2: Background Check
- Volunteers must undergo a Criminal Record Check (18 and older) before they begin their volunteer work by signing and returning form to the parish office.
- For volunteers under the age of 18, training must be done in person. Contact Luke Nolan (585-288-5000, ext. 121 or [email protected]) to arrange for this training.
Step 3: Provide Parish Office with Documentation
Once you have completed the online training, be sure to send in the following to the parish office:
- Signed volunteer code of conduct
- Criminal record check (for 18 years of age and older)
- Copy of your driver’s license or other form of ID (social security card or valid passport)
- Completion certificate
REMINDER: **Volunteers under age 18 must complete CASE Training online (link here) and In Person only.**
Tips for Training or Retraining Online
- Only one volunteer may take the Quiz at a time. Two volunteers taking one quiz is not allowed.
- Users must disable their web browser’s pop-up blocker.
- Users must be using a computer connected to a printer to print CASE Certificate. If there is no access to a printer, users may either save the files as a .pdf, take a Screen Shot, or take a photo of said documents and send them to the Parish CASE Coordinator via e-mail. Volunteers may also complete CASE training at a parish or school computer with access to a printer.
Thank you for volunteering!
