Re: background checks for children’s workers-The bad news is Child Protective Services told us if your approval is over a year old, you should complete a form again. The good news is they have revised the forms, and they’re much shorter now. The new forms are available at the Welcome Center. Every volunteer will need to complete the new form and return it to the church office.
