To protect vulnerable people such as children or the elderly, its volunteers and its staff, the Archdiocese of Toronto&nbsp;requires parishes to screen volunteers for all ministries.&nbsp;For most ministries, screening is as simple as filling out a contact form. For ministries involving vulnerable groups, there are additional steps -a&nbsp;police check, reference checks and an interview. The supervisor of the ministry you wish to volunteer in will&nbsp;give your name to the Parish Volunteer Screening Committee.&nbsp;A&nbsp;member of the committee will contact&nbsp;you to start the screening process.
