Thank you for considering our parish volunteer opportunities and for helping to ensure that our parish and ministries are safe environments for our children.
Before you can volunteer, it is important that all employees and volunteers in our parish over the age of 18 go through the Diocese of Pittsburgh's Safe Environment process. The Diocese has created a centralized electronic database of all those who work and minister within the Church - including religious, employees and volunteers in the parish. This database is not only our means to ensure that we fulfill the mandate of the Church in the United States as outlined in the USCCB Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People, but also meets the requirements of state and federal law. You will NOT be able to work or volunteer within the Diocese of Pittsburgh unless you meet all of the requirements.
To comply with the Diocese of Pittsburgh Safe Enivornment Policy ALL St. Matthias Parish employees and volunteers are required to complete the following steps found on the diocesan website:
