We, the Catholic faithful of the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City, share responsibility for the life and mission of the Church.  Each of us is called to celebrate, promote and, when necessary, to defend the life and dignity of every person.  This responsibility requires that together and individually we treat everyone with respect, do what we can to see that harm is never brought to others, especially minors and vulnerable adults, and seek to bring healing for those who have been harmed. 

Ensuring a safe environment for children, young people and vulnerable adults is a continuous effort.  Our Archdiocese pledges to continue to work toward identifying areas where we can be more effective.
