The Deadline has Arrived for
All Youth-Serving Organizations
CA law requires youth serving organizations (including churches) to have certain child protection measures in place.
These measures include...
-
Fingerprint background checks for administrators, employees, and regular volunteers
-
Policies and procedures for child protection and abuse prevention
-
Training on abuse and neglect identification and reporting
As imposing as these laws may seem, they're only the beginning of what is considered best practice when it comes to child protection. For example, fingerprint background checks may not catch everything in an individual's criminal history and are only one element of what is recommended as a more robust screening process.
