Security Information
Because of the sensitive nature of volunteer work with troubled children, most of our partners require that volunteers have a criminal background check/Livescan and TB Test. They will usually cover these expenses, but if not, are you willing to pay for your own security clearance? It could cost from $25 - $50.

YES
