Youth Forms

Form A – Parent/Guardian Continuing Consent Form and Liability Waiver

Form A only needs to be filled out one time and is considered valid until the participant graduates from high school. Ideally, this form is filled out upon entrance into 6th or 7th grade (depending on what grade your parish starts youth activities). This form is required for any youth activity that occurs on or off your campus. Every youth participant (guests included) should have Form A on file at the parish. A copy of Form A should always travel with the youth leader anytime you are off-campus for an event; the original should always stay on file at the parish.

Form B – Annual Update Form

Form B is an annual update that follows Form A (for youth) and Form C (for adults). After the initial completion of Forms A and C, only Form B needs to be completed. If Form A is filled out this year, Form B will not be filled out until the following year and then only Form B until graduation.

Form C – Adult Leader/Chaperone Medical Release and Liability Form

Form C is the adult equivalent of Form A. All adults who lead or help with youth ministry programs should have Form C on file at the parish – this is a separate document from the Protecting God’s Children training. Form C should be filled out by full-time staff, part-time staff, and parent/adult volunteers who help with youth programming. Upon completion of Form C; adult leaders will only need to complete Form B, the annual update. A copy of Form C should travel with the youth leader anytime you are off-campus for an event; the original should always stay on file at the parish. Form C and Form A function the same.

Form E – Specific Event Form

Consider Form E your “field trip permission form.” Form E is required for all youth who participate in any off-campus activities (whether it is a one-hour activity or a week-long activity); Form E is required for all youth participants (guests included). Form E will need to be filled out for each individual off-campus activity or event that is planned. A copy of Form A should be carried with the youth leader to any off-campus activity and the original should remain on file at the parish. Form E should also travel with you for that specified event.
