What does the criminal background check consist of?
Per state law, all staff working with children must be screened in order to identify and exclude ex-offenders with a history of violent and/or sex crimes, especially where those crimes were directed against children. The Firefighters Kids Camp will conduct background investigations of all staff in the following manner: Each staff candidate will be required to submit a recent copy of his or her DMV information record. Each staff candidate will be fingerprinted using the LiveScan process in order to facilitate a criminal records check by the California State Department of Justice. Each staff candidate will be required to complete a Voluntary Disclosure Statement that asks thorough questions about possible involvement in abuse to minors.
