Circle of Grace is program designed to offer Safe Environment Education to children and young people. This program is mandated by the Bishop of the Diocese of Worcester and helps youth to understand their own and others’ dignity of mind, body, and spirit. Furthermore, it aims to equip them with essential knowledge and skills to respect themselves and others. Every person deserves to be safe and feel loved for we are all created and loved by God. Circle of Grace teaches children and young people not only how sacred they are, but also how to protect themselves and to seek help through safe relationships with trusted adults.
