All volunteers within the Austin Diocese are required to complete and maintain compliance with the Diocesan Ethics and Integrity in Ministry Program (EIM). EIM compliance is mandatory for all volunteers/staff at Emmaus Parish. EIM is an awareness program designed to help protect and ensure the safety of our youth and most vulnerable adults.
First time volunteers need to create a Virtus Online account for the Diocese and preregister for an in person training workshop. If assistance is required, contact the Emmaus Site Coordinator, Janet Coplin at eim@emmausparish.org . Please RSVP 24 hours in advance of the workshop.
When attending a workshop, please be prompt, latecomers will not be admitted to the workshop. No childcare is available.
