The Archdiocese of Baltimore and St. Charles Borromeo Parish have a commitment to maintaining the trust of the faithful by providing our children and youth with safe environments characterized by healthy relationships. With our longstanding commitment in mind, all parishes will be using VIRTUS Online, a new compliance management system that will allow all parishes to facilitate compliance with archdiocesan child protection requirements for all volunteers, employees, and clergy.
