On March 16, 2002, Cardinal Law empanelled Cardinal Law's Commission
for the Protection of Children to independently evaluate and make
recommendations to the Cardinal as to how the abuse prevention
policies and procedures of this archdiocese can be strengthened.
The Commission
has been looking at the processes involving the investigation of
cases, the counseling and treatment being offered, the pastoral
response to victims, to their families, and to the clergy, and
the
education on this issue at all levels within the Church. The
final report of the Commission was released on October 7, 2002..
An Archdiocesan Office of Child Advocacy, Implementation and Oversight
has been created, and Deacon Anthony Rizzuto has been appointed
as its Director. The Commission is both aware of and encourages
this initiative. Among the responsibilities of this new office is
the implementation of the education and training programs for the
parishes and schools, and the selection of appropriate curricula
for our children.
