Virtus and Fingerprinting
To help keep our parish a safe and welcoming home for all, St. Clare requires all volunteers who serve with children, youth, or the wider community to complete Virtus Protecting God’s Children training and fingerprinting.
Whether you’re joining a ministry for the first time or updating your compliance, we’re here to support you. Upcoming training dates and fingerprinting appointments are available—please contact the parish office at 661‑252‑3353 or email m.torres@st-clare.org to reserve your spot.
Thank you for helping us protect and care for our parish family.
Virtus Certification
At St. Clare, we are committed to creating a safe environment for every child and vulnerable adult in our parish community. The VIRTUS® Program provides essential training that empowers volunteers, staff, and ministry leaders to recognize, prevent, and report abuse.
