GUIDING PRINCIPLES: 1. The City provides opportunities for community members to share their gifts and talents through volunteer experiences. 2. The City recognizes the importance volunteerism plays in the bigger picture of community wellness. 3. The City places the highest priority on the safety of its customers, staff and volunteers who choose to serve with us. OBJECTIVES: 1. To conduct a criminal background screening program based on the National Recreation and Park Association's Recommended Guidelines for Credentialing Volunteers. 2. To conduct criminal background screenings in a timely manner on volunteers assigned to work with vulnerable populations. 3. To maintain confidentiality to the extent allowed by law of volunteers who willingly submit to screening. DEFINITIONS: 1.

However,there are now criminal history databases Supplemental Programming Agreement M of 17 FINAL—Effective Oct. 1,2018 available that contain millions of criminal records and cover much of the United States. This is beneficial in expanding the search across the country but should not be used as a standalone source background screening. 6. Sex Offender Registry conducts a search of the appropriate state sexoffender registries based on the address history. 7. Timely Results should be returned within ten(10)business days to allow for proper planning and assignment of volunteers. 8. Volunteer Coordinator shall be defined as the person who oversees the coordination of volunteer programs for a department or City overall. 9. Vulnerable Populations shall be defined as youth, elderly or intellectually challenged. PROCEDURES: I. PROGRAM INFORMATION A. A third-party public information vendor will conduct background checks following the National Recreation and Park Association's Recommended Guidelines for Credentialing Volunteers.

National Criminal History Database Search 5. Sex Offender Registry B. Background check records will be accessible to the Volunteer Coordinator and Department Records Manager. Staff will only be notified of volunteer acceptance or denial. Details of the background check will be kept confidential. C. Volunteers who elect not to authorize screening shall not be eligible to work in volunteer positions that work directly with vulnerable populations or in roles of increased responsibility. D. Background screening exceptions include one-time public events where volunteers would not be working with vulnerable populations or one-time public events where volunteers could be working around vulnerable populations in a supervised,public and non-relational role. Example: one-time major public events, clean-ups and adult programs. E. A volunteer photo identification system will be implemented in accordance with the National Recreation and Park Association's guidelines for volunteer photo identification. II. PROGRAM PROCEDURES A.
