DENVER - The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, or SNAP, is calling on the Denver Archdiocese to publicly reveal the names of church leaders who have abused children.

SNAP members handed out flyers Tuesday, outside the Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. The group is encouraging parishioners to call Archbishop Charles Chaput and urge him to post the names of known sexual predators on the church website.

"This is not about vengeance. This is not about a witch hunt. This is about protecting children and we believe that should be the priority of this Archdiocese" said SNAP President Barbara Blaine.
