St Andrew's is part of the national Episcopal Church and locally the Diocese of Pittsburgh, and so follows the guidance of our wider body.  ​All adults entrusted with the care of children and youth at St. Andrew's must complete online safe church training every three years or show proof of completed mandated reporter training.  In addition, to the safe church training, everyone must provide copies of Pa State Criminal Record check and Pa Child Abuse History Clearance.  An FBI fingerprint clearance is required for anyone who has lived outside of Pennsylvania in the last ten years. 

You can read our full policies for the care of children & youth (here), and vulnerable adults (here). For more information on reporting abuse, neglect, or exploitation, see below.
