Our Goals
Discovering our gifts together, we aim to serve others as Disciples of Christ while sustaining the gospel values of love and respect for each person. All volunteers are required by the Catholic Diocese of Austin to be compliant with the Ethics and Integrity in Ministry (EIM) policy.
Steps required to become EIM compliant at Saint William Parish are:- Contact Tommy Sustaita, Volunteer Coordinator at (512) 600-8190 or TSustaita@st-william.org to schedule a volunteer guide & discernment session, determine your Ethics and Integrity in Ministry (EIM) status, or register for an EIM workshop.
- Existing and returning volunteers please confirm your EIM status through the Austin Diocese website www.eappsdb.com/austin or with Tommy Sustaita.
- Attend an Ethics & Integrity in Ministry Workshop.

EIM Workshop Information and Attendance
The EIM workshop teaches participants about boundaries, warning signs, appropriate interactions in our work with minors and vulnerable adults, how to respond to incidents and reviews diocesan EIM policies.
Workshop attendance is required after submitting the eApp (application) in order to be fully compliant. To attend an EIM workshop, complete the eApp and register using the last page of the eApp. Because childcare is not available at most workshops, parents should plan to make childcare arrangements for their children. Young children should not be brought to an EIM workshop. Older adolescents may attend if they will be working in paid ministry or if their parent determines they should attend the adult EIM workshop program. Due to the importance of this issue, once the workshop has begun, late arrivals will be redirected to another workshop in the Diocese.
Visit the Diocese of Austin website to complete your application and sign-up for a workshop. -

- Discover your potential as a volunteer, leader or particpant in ministry.
- Guidance through the EIM requirements.
- Build community with other particpants who are invested in helping ministry develop.
