To help us maintain a safe and welcoming environment, we ask that all volunteers complete a police check. This check reviews your criminal record to ensure there are no disqualifying offences. The process is handled by your local police department or an authorized agency.
Please be aware that there is a fee for this service, which you’ll need to pay upfront. Don’t forget to keep the receipt, as we’ll reimburse you for this cost.
Please submit your police check application as soon as you can, giving ample time for processing.
