As written in the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People, the Church's first obligation is for the healing and reconciliation of victims, providing counseling, spiritual assistance, support and any other services that may be needed to serve those who have been the victim of sexual abuse by any person in church service. 

Anyone needing these services, regardless of how long ago the abuse occurred, is encouraged to contact our Victim Assistance Coordinator, Deacon Pat Hall, at 269-903-0175 or by email. 

Call the Michigan Attorney General's hotline:

The Diocese of Kalamazoo has and will continue to cooperate with the Attorney General’s investigation and encourages anyone with information related to misconduct to call the reporting number set-up by the Attorney General’s office at: 844.324.3374
 

Those looking for healing from trauma of any kind are encouraged to participate in our diocesan Trauma Recovery program.
