Parental Opt-Out Form

The Diocese of Orlando has implemented a child abuse awareness, prevention, and safety program in all parishes and Catholic schools as mandated by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) in compliance with the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People. Students enrolled in a Catholic School or parish-based catechesis are encouraged to participate in this programming. Our diocese is required, through an audit process, to verify to the USCCB that this training has been provided. We are also required to keep track of the number of students who are absent or whose parents do not allow them to participate in the
training.

For the Parent/Guardian,
By signing this form I (We) acknowledge the above and elect NOT to have my (Our) child participate in the aforementioned program. Please complete this form and return it to your child’s instructor/catechist or the appropriate administrator. A separate form is required for each child. Thank you for your assistance.

The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of people.

The parish of Holy Redeemer Catholic Church has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19; however, we cannot guarantee that you will not become infected with COVID-19. Further, participation in Faith Formation/ Youth Ministry could increase your child(ren)’s or your risk of contracting COVID-19.

By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by participating in Faith Formation/ Youth Ministry at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. I understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of myself and others, including, but not limited to, employees, volunteers, and program participants and their families.

I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility for any injury to myself (including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death), illness, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that I may experience or incur in connection with my participation in Faith Formation/ Youth Ministry at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church (“Claims”). On my behalf, I hereby release, covenant not to sue, discharge, and hold harmless Holy Redeemer Catholic Church and the Diocese of Orlando, and all of their current, former, and future agents, representatives, religious and employees and related entities (collectively, “the Diocese”) of and from
the Claims, including all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind arising out of or relating thereto. I understand and agree that this release includes any Claims based on the actions, omissions, or negligence of the Diocese, its employees, agents, and representatives, whether a COVID-19 infection occurs before, during, or after or participation in Faith Formation/ Youth Ministry .
