This workshop is for all those who have previously been certified by the Diocese of Austin to volunteer with minors.  Minors include anyone under 18 and all vulnerable adults.  This workshop is part of the Diocesan Ethics and Integrity in Ministry policies that were adopted in January 2002 and revised in August 2008. 

This workshop may also be used to fulfill the "Refresher" requirement every three years.  If a volunteer has not yet been certified by the Diocese of Austin to volunteer with minors, then an EIM Basic workshop should be attended.

All clergy and paid staff, and all volunteers working with youth and vulnerable adults, at any parish or Diocesan location, are required to complete a one-time Application for Ministry prior to beginning their work/service and attend an EIM workshop within 60 days of submitting the application.  This application is available online at www.austindiocese.org.

Please register ahead of time so that adequate material may be available.  To register, contact Donella McLean, Parish Secretary, at 979-968-3430.
