Effective January 1, 2022, all volunteers in California MUST have a one-time background check as approved by the California Department of Justice to exclude individuals with a history of child abuse. This form of background check requires live scan fingerprinting. This requirement applies to all of our coaches, referees, team parents, and Board members.
I'm sure many of us have been livescanned for various organizations over the years but unfortunately, livescan results are not transferable from another organization. So you need to perform this process for each organization you volunteer with. But the good news is that this is a one-time requirement.
To help streamline the process and make it easier to volunteer, other Regions around us will be hosting a live scan fingerprinting event. For your ease and convenience, Region 254 will pay for this service.
Below is the list of these other Live Scan events:
September 18th - Region 174 Granada Hills
***If you can't make this event, you can register to be fingerprinted at a livescan center close by. You will have to pay the fees which are reimbursable by the region.
