Volunteer Registration
With our longstanding commitment in mind, all parishes and Archdiocesan Catholic Schools use VIRTUS, a compliance management system that allows all parishes and schools to facilitate compliance with Archdiocesan child protection requirements for all volunteers who work with minors, employees, and clergy.

All those who wish to work or volunteer in our parish must be appropriately screened and trained and provide three written references to the parish. All who wish to do so must go to www.virtusonline.org. You will register by clicking "First-Time Registrant." Select: "Begin the registration process," and then "Baltimore Archdiocese." Make sure to choose Our Lady Queen of Peace Church. You will create a login-ID and password.  If you have questions about registration process, you may speak with Isabelle Gerber, the Screening Coordinator by email
[email protected] or phone 410-335-6140. Also, feel free to contact the Archdiocese of Baltimore, Office of Child and Youth Protection at (410) 547-5348.

If you are under 18 years of age and would like to volunteer, please contact Kathy Shadrach at [email protected] to register for Worthy of the Call Training.

The Archdiocese of Baltimore urges anyone who has reason to believe that a child has been subjected to abuse or neglect to report it immediately to the local Department of Social Services, Child Protective Services. The number for CPS in Harford County is 410-853-3000 or after hours contact the Police Department at 410-828-6390. 
If anyone suspects Church Personnel of abuse, neglect, or misconduct with a minor, please also contact the Archdiocesan Office of Child and Youth Protection by calling the Victims’ Assistance line at 1-866-417-7469 or by contacting the office directly at 410-547-5348.
