Criminal Record Check Info

HOW TO OBTAIN A CRIMINAL RECORD CHECK

All CISV leaders, host families, and key positions on the board are required to obtain a Criminal Record Check (CRC) for vulnerable populations (PIC-VS) every three years.

CISV also requires all members of a host family who are 18 years and older to obtain a CRC prior to the start of the program. This requirement includes anyone who will be staying in the household at any time during the homestay/program.

We now have an online system for applying!
Our organization’s access code is: J28CSU63F7
