Volunteer

We love volunteers! If you would like to volunteer at SLCS, please make sure that you are Safe Environment (formerly Virtus) trained and approved.  

The new Safe Environment online training program, administered through CMG, has replaced the VIRTUS training. The new training consists of three vignette-style training videos that are approximately 60 minutes. These trainings are available in English and Spanish.

The turnaround time for approval, once everything has been submitted, has been significantly reduced to approximately one week. All individuals must complete the training and be approved prior to the start of employment and/or volunteer service.

The 5-year anniversary date is still in place.  Anyone who recently attended VIRTUS will not be required to complete a refresher class until their 5-year anniversary. As the 5-year anniversary date approaches, you will need to log into your CMG acct. at www.galvestonhouston.cmgconnect.org with your previous VIRTUS username and 1234 as the password.  If you do not remember your username, you may contact CMG at [email protected] for assistance.

To Take the Refresher class:

• Once you have logged into your CMG account, you will be able to change your password and start the online training class assigned

• Take the CMG online training class called Safe Haven-Archdiocesan and make sure you complete the background check questions.
