St. Peter’s will present a sexual abuse prevention program, VIRTUS: Teaching Touching Safety, to our Pre-K – 8th grade students on October 7th during PREP class, and to 9th-12th grade students on October 3rd during Youth Group.

As a parent, you have the right to choose whether your student participates in the program. You either granted or denied permission on the registration form when registering your child for PREP. We encourage you to read the “overview”, “parent guide”, and “lesson plan” assigned to your child’s age group to understand exactly what your child will be taught. All these materials are available at http://archatl.com/ministries-services/safe-environment/grades-k-12/safe-environment-lesson-plans/ and entering the password: V1rtus. The Safe Environment training for Adults of the Archdiocese of Atlanta, VIRTUS: Protecting God’s Children, includes training in how to recognize, prevent and report abuse.
