Safeguarding in the Diocese
The emotional, physical, and spiritual safety, well-being, and dignity of all within our diocese is an integral part of the teachings and values of the Catholic Church.
The Diocese of Lismore is committed and dedicated to safeguarding all those within our community. We aim to foster communities of safety and care. We acknowledge our legal, moral, and spiritual responsibilities to care for – and uphold the dignity and rights of – children, young people, and adults at risk.
