A Comprehensive Evaluation of the Safe Environment Curriculum and Implementation
Ortega-Ruiz, Valeria
Online Submission, EdD Capstone Project, Capella University
In 2002, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops adopted the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People in response to the staggering amount of sexual abuse allegations against clergypersons in the Catholic Church. The adoption of this Charter led to the creation and country-wide mandate of The Safe Environment Program and curriculum in 2003. This evaluation report uses qualitative and quantitative data collection methods to assess the effectiveness and overall worth of the Safe Environment curriculum. Stakeholders who engage and are impacted by the curriculum participated in the study and helped guide the inquiry in answering the evaluation questions. Data findings indicate a strong desire for improvement in the curriculum's relevance and implementation. Instructional and communication gaps were also identified. Further exploration of the findings and recommendations are discussed in-depth.
