Churches are invited to use one of these companies or another company.  It is your responsibility to check with your insurance provider to verify that the option you choose will satisfy the requirement of your policy.

Track-1/PeopleFacts for employees, contractors, volunteers:

The conference covers the administative cost and your church will receive a bill only for the screenings. The cost of screenings ranges from $35-$48 and there are options for volunteer as well as staff screenings.

Camp Background Checks for volunteers:

The Dakotas-Minnesota Area Camp and Retreat Ministry uses Camp Background Checks for screening volunteers. We have used this company for several years and have found them responsive and easy to work with. Individual churches are also eligible to create accounts with the company. There is no annual fee. You are only billed for the background checks you run. The cost is around $11 for each screening. Add-on options, such as motor vehicle reports and county of residence searches, are available for additional fees. To set up a free account for your church, please contact Camp Background Checks via one of the options below.
