The Catholic Diocese of Buffalo is hoping to right a major wrong for victims of sexual abuse.
“We are so very, very sorry for the pain of the abuse that has happened to you. We’re sorry. I’m sorry and want to do everything we can going forward, reaching out to you who have to come to us in the past,” said Most Rev. Bishop J. Malone of the Catholic Diocese of Buffalo.
The church announced Thursday they’ve created the Independent Reconciliation and Compensation Program (IRCP) to pay those who have previously made claims of abuse.
