Ethics and Integrity in Ministry (EIM) Etica e Integridad en el Ministerio

On Jan. 1, 2002, the Diocese of Austin instated new policies on Ethics and Integrity in Ministry (EIM) for all employees and those volunteers who minister to youth or vulnerable adults in the diocese. In August 2008 these policies were revised: all those required to be compliant with these policies must attend an EIM workshop every 3 years (applications do not have to be updated).
