Specialized Nonprofit Screening Programs

Camps & Conference Centers
Camps and conference centers often rely on seasonal staff and volunteers who work closely with children, families, and guests — often in residential-type settings. We support camps and conference centers with background screening options designed to address:
  • Youth safety and supervision
  • Seasonal and high-volume hiring
  • Staff and volunteers with access to housing or facilities
  • Consistency of process from season to season
Community & Faith-Based Organizations
Staff and volunteers at community and faith-based organizations must cultivate and uphold their community's legacy of trust. We help these organizations:
  • Screen staff and volunteers responsibly and consistently
  • Implement practices focused on the protection of children, families, and congregations
  • Establish clear screening practices to use on new or annual staff
  • Support safety while honoring culture and mission
