Welcome to SafeNet
Established in March of 2003, SafeNet is a non profit organization founded by survivors of clergy sexual abuse that supports healing for all who have been victimized by the crisis. Since then we have helped hundreds of survivors, family members, friends and communities.
While our focus is on survivors, parishes, communities and religious in the Franciscan Province of St. Barbara, we are available to all dioceses. SafeNet is not alligned with any religion or religious organization. We strive to work directly with all sides and to engage in honest dialogue.
An Open Letter to All Survivors and to All Who Have Been Hurt by the Clergy Abuse Crisis
Important: The intent of this Open Letter is to raise awareness of how everyone, not just survivors, has been impacted by the clergy abuse crisis. Survivors were the driving force behind this letter, but one does not have to be a survivor to participate. We are urging anyone who has been hurt in any way by this crisis, and who agrees with what is being said, to sign with us.
This Open Letter will be an ongoing project of SafeNet. Names will be added and updated regularly. If you would like to sign, please send us an email. Instructions for doing so are at the end of the Open Letter.
Court Filings
SafeNet is committed to helping individuals and communities gain acess to as much information about the clergy abuse crisis as possible, particularly as it pertains to the Franciscan Province of St. Barbara. Informed decisions depend on full disclosure.
The St. Anthony's Seminary Archive
The purpose and goal of The SAS Archive is to document and preserve the entire 91 year history of Saint Anthony’s Seminary and make this information readily available online to the general public via The SAS Archive Online Project.
