The Safeguarding of minors and vulnerable adults is an integral part of the Congregation’s vision and mission.<\/strong><\/h4>

For a very long time, the issue of sexual abuse and other forms of abuse were considered too complex to deal with especially in the case of minors and vulnerable adults. It is a fact that there are many vulnerable adults due to physical challenges and cognitive disabilities. There is yet another group of people whose vulnerability cannot be judged concerning any of the above factors but are still vulnerable in particular situations.<\/span>

In his letter to the presidents of the Episcopal conferences and superiors of Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life on 2nd February 2015, Pope Francis recommended taking whatever steps are necessary to ensure the protection of minors and vulnerable adults, and to respond to their needs with fairness and mercy.<\/span>

The Congregation of Jesus Mary Joseph, dedicated to the work of liberation caters to various needs of the minors and the vulnerable adults. We have a two-fold responsibility to ensure safety and to promote the culture of care and dignity of every person by establishing Safeguarding guidelines that would be implemented in all its apostolic activities and within the communities.<\/span><\/p>
