When I became Bishop of Lincoln in 2012, I undertook a systematic
review of the safe-environment and child-protection policies and
procedures governing the Church in southern Nebraska. To assist me, I
asked our independent Review Board, a group of experts in criminal
justice, psychology, and education, to recommend enhancements to our
background checks and training programs.
The Diocese of Lincoln is fully compliant with the child protection laws of Nebraska, and the child protection policies of the Catholic Church. Last autumn, I announced that our diocese would begin undergoing annual independent audits of our compliance with child protection policies.
