Victims Advocates

Fourteen years ago the Diocese of St. Cloud established a program to help victims of sexual misconduct on the part of church personnel.  Anyone who wishes to bring forward a complaint of such misconduct is encouraged to contact a victim advocate who will assist the person to take whatever steps the victim feels is appropriate to resolve the issue.  Confidentiality is assured.
