As
you are aware, the Diocese of Toledo participates in an annual audit to
determine if our safe environment program, policies, and practices are in
compliance with the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Charter
for the Protection of Children and Young People.
On
behalf of Bishop Thomas, I am happy to report that the Diocese of Toledo has
been found to be in compliance with the articles of the Charter, based
on the 2019-2020 fiscal year audit.
The
Diocese of Toledo remains committed to ensuring the protection of children and
providing a safe environment for all young people. If you have any
knowledge of abuse that has been committed by a cleric or by any personnel of
the Catholic Church, you are urged to report the abuse to your local police
department, Children Services, and to contact the Diocesan Victim Assistance
Coordinator at (419) 214-4880; or to write to the Victim Assistance Coordinator
at 1933 Spielbusch Avenue; Toledo, Ohio 43604.
