Safeguarding Policy

Guardian Angels Parish has implemented the Archdiocesan Safeguarding Policy. We are committed to high standards of recruitment, screening and selection of all of our employees and volunteers and undertake intentional strategies to maintain a safe and healthy ministry environment for all. 
 

STOPline Service
STOPline is an independent commercial service that receives confidential information and reports about suspected abuse, serious misconduct and policy breaches by Archdiocesan personnel, including clergy, religious, employees and volunteers. The service also applies to Brisbane Catholic Education and Centacare Brisbane.

STOPline is available to all Archdiocesan personnel, volunteers and the general community.

Information can be provided to STOPline anonymously.

Safeguarding Policy


“The Church loves all her children like a loving mother, but cares for all and protects with a special affection those who are smallest and defenceless. This is the duty that Christ himself entrusted to the entire Christian community.”
 
(Apostolic Letter issued ‘motu proprio’ by the Supreme Pontiff Francis, 4 June 2016)


The Archdiocesan Safeguarding Policy can be found at:brisbanecatholic.org.au/assets/uploads/Safeguarding-Policy.pdf
 
Each Parish in the Archdiocese of Brisbane has been asked to appoint a Local Safeguarding Representative who is responsible for:
  1. Making sure that the whole parish is aware of the importance of safeguarding children and vulnerable adults
  2. Promoting safe practices including articulating for others what is appropriate and inappropriate behaviour; and
  3. Assisting the Parish Priest/Administrator in the implementation of the Archdiocesan Safeguarding Policy in the Parish
