Safeguard the Children
"Committed to creating a safe environment
for all children of our parish community."
The Safeguard The Children Committee
Our committee was formed in the spring of 2007
in accordance with Archdiocese of Los Angeles guidelines
to ensure the safety of our children.
The committee is comprised of:
Chris Motte as chair, Justene Adamec, Bill Adler, Moira Arjani,
Rose Banich, Josh Corzantes, Janise Escobar, Christine Godinez,
Joe King, Ann Pomphrey, Cindy Sercel, Jorge Valdivia,
Stefanie Vance, Jen Valencia and Ralph Valente.
These caring and dedicated individuals are working hard to
implement procedures and offer informative programs to
protect our children going forward and offer healing from the past.
If you have any comments or suggestions in regard to this issue,
please contact one of these members
or contact Chris at cmotte61@gmail.com or 818-445-9770.
