How will applicants be screened?
In order to be considered as a volunteer, and to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone involved in the Games, all volunteers will be required to undergo a Criminal Records Check (CRC). The CRC process is coordinated by the Halifax Regional Police and the RCMP for the Halifax 2011 Canada Games. The cost of completing CRCs will be covered by the Host Society—volunteers will not have to pay to complete a CRC. More information about the Criminal Records Check process will be sent to applicants once they’ve submitted their online application.
