To ensure the safety of our parish community, all those 15 years of age and older who will be working around our children, vulnerable adults, disabled, or handling parish finances must be Diocesan fingerprinted and cleared.

Go to https://www.priderockholdings.com/SafeSupport/instructions.php?comp_id=214 Or Go to www.orlandodiocese.org, click on “Outreach & Prevention” on the right hand side, then click on “Fingerprinting.” This will redirect you to a site to start the online application process.

• If you are active or interested in serving with a St. Mary Magdalen Church ministry, scholarships are available for the fingerprinting process.  Contact Melissa Findley at (407) 831-1212 x 268 or MelissaF@StMaryMagdalen.org for instructions to avoid payment.
• Contact Melissa to check on clearance expiration date (every 5 years), to ensure we have all required documentation on file, or if you need assistance completing the online application.
• If you are only interested in or active with our St. Mary Magdalen School, Early Learning Center, or a School ministry, the fee is $49.75.
• If under 18, a parent or legal guardian must be present when fingerprinted.
• In the online application, you choose the date/time convenient for your schedule.  If you need a time other than what is posted, finish the application with an alternate date/time in case we cannot accommodate you and then contact Melissa at MelissaF@StMaryMagdalen.or or (407) 831-1212 x268.

There are three entities fingerprinting for the Diocese of Orlando at this time (the Diocese downtown office, Catholic Charities, and St. Mary Magdalen).   You are welcome to schedule an appointment with any of the three.   Make sure you bring your bar code (issued after you complete the online application) and U.S. Government issued photo I.D. used to fill out the application to your appointment.   If your prints reject due to illegibility, you have 120 days from the date of rejection to schedule another fingerprinting appointment without charge to anyone (Do not schedule online - Call site directly to reschedule).

• The Diocese will not release your fingerprinting record until they have a record on file indicating you have completed the Safe Environment Training.
• Your fingerprinting clearance will be sent via e-mail from notifications@priderockholdings.com or Marsha Luke.  Please show a copy of the clearance to your respective ministry leader and if you marked any entity other than St. Mary Magdalen on your application, please provide a copy of the clearance to the parish office.

The Diocese of Orlando is required by the United States Catholic Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) to follow certain guidelines with regard to safe environment training. As are all other archdioceses and dioceses, we are required to undergo regular audits by the USCCB to be sure that we are in compliance with those regulations. Therefore, all church personnel and disciples (volunteers) working around children and vulnerable populations must complete the "Safety Environment Training" in addition to obtaining a background/fingerprint clearance. Although the topic of the training may be difficult to discuss, the reality must be dealt with in an appropriate and swift manner. These trainings give us specific policies and procedures to follow in order to secure a safe environment for all of God’s people. There are two ways in which you may fulfill the safety training requirement.
