Reports and Audit Summaries

In 2002, the crime and sin of child sexual abuse was brought out in the open. In bringing light to this crisis, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles has made significant efforts to protect children and youth, including prompt reporting of abuse allegations to civil authorities, screening all those who supervise children, and training adults and children in the latest abuse prevention procedures. The past cannot be changed, but we have learned from it. With nearly 2 million people trained in our Archdiocese alone, we remain vigilant against all that would harm our children and young people.
