Faithfully Guarding the Flock: Catholic Screening & Tracking for a Secure Parish
As shepherds of the Church, we are called to safeguard our flock. ParishSOFT’s Safe Environment Program (SEP) provides Catholic parishes and dioceses with essential tools for background checks and compliance monitoring—all in one efficient system integrated with your ParishSOFT ChMS. Together, we create a secure and faith-filled environment.
Cultivating a Safe and Sacred Catholic Community
A secure parish begins with proactive protection. Identifying risks and implementing a comprehensive risk management plan ensures that every volunteer, staff member, and clergy member upholds the highest standards of safety. ParishSOFT’s Safe Environment Program equips Catholic leaders with the tools to faithfully guard the flock—combining background checks, and compliance tracking into a cohesive, ongoing protection system.
