St Agnes’ Catholic Parish is committed to fostering 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 vulnerable adults.

If you or a person close to you has been abused by someone working or ministering within the Diocese of Lismore, we ask you to contact the Catholic Diocese of Lismore Safeguarding Office, who will listen respectfully, offer support and discuss options you have available to you.

To contact the Safeguarding Office, please phone (02) 6621 9444 or email safeguarding@lismore.catholic.org.au
