Planning and Prevention

Joe Cybert, Director of Safety and Security, will be leading our team of staff and volunteers to implement strategic safety enhancements throughout The Basilica and the surrounding campus. We are taking a broad approach to security by enhancing our staffing and technology resources to implement a plan that is both inclusive and welcoming, while balancing our need for safety. Our goal is a 100% safe and secure campus for our parishioners and guests.
