ANNUAL PARISH AUDIT

Every year an independent auditing company, selected by the Conference of Catholic Bishops in the United States of America, conducts audits of each diocese (diocese). This is done to collect information on any new allegations of violence in parishes and schools and how safe our parishes and schools are. These audits are held in August-September for the period from July 1 to June 30 (school year). Our parishes are obligated to submit their reports at a designated time.

Please read carefully which forms need to be filled out and submitted to our department.

• For parishes that do not have catechetical classes and schools, the following 2 (two) forms must be submitted:
• 1. Annual archeparchial checklist;
  2. Safe Environment program report.
