The importance of safety programs and background checks

Over the last decade, organizations offering child-focused programs have experienced increased safety requirements. Those that do not comply with today’s safety mandates not only put children at risk but also their community at large. Organizations must screen anyone that comes into contact with children on their behalf, including:

- Coaches

- Volunteers

- Seasonal staff

- Full & part-time employees

NCSI goes beyond GCIC (Georgia Crime Information Center) Screenings which do not search out-of-state records.

Why we recommend NCSI background screenings

We’ve done the research, and no other background screening provider can compare to NCSI—both in terms of the quality of support that they provide and the unmatched depth that their background checks reach to uncover pivotal information other screenings may miss.

NCSI delivers the Gold Standard in background screenings, and when it comes to the safety of children, we believe that choosing a discount over quality isn’t a risk worth taking.

NCSI USER TESTIMONIALS

We have been a client of NCSI for 10+ years to conduct our background check screenings for our volunteer coaches. We screen approximately 2,500 applicants each year. NCSI offers a national screening that local departments do not. Our applicant’s information is kept confidential and secure. The submission, turnaround time, and customer service is nothing but exceptional.

Camille Thomas, CYSA Athletic Coordinator - Cherokee Recreation and Parks Agency

It’s really a no-brainer and I wish every recreation department across the nation had to implement this program. This is one area where I am proud to work with a department who is being proactive with today’s youth.
