What Is The Diana Screen
The Diana Screen captures three kinds of information to identify a person's sexual risk to children.
Today, in the United States there are 43 million men and women who are survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Only 1% of their abusers have criminal convictions. The Diana Screen is a simple test that goes beyond criminal background checks to keep the children in your group safe.
Applicants answer 123 questions online at a computer in the organization's office.
The Diana Screen takes five minutes staff time to administer and 20 minutes for an applicant to complete.
The Diana Screen is a risk management tool that reduces the risk that your group's children will be sexually abused and reduces the risk that your group will face expensive sexual misconduct lawsuits. (From 2004 to 2008, the Roman Catholic Church has paid nearly $2.1 billion in legal claims related to child sexual abuse by clerics)1
Pass/Fail results are immediate.
