The Odds are Not to Your Advantage. Be Proactive.

January 1, 2013, Department, by National Recreation and Park Association

Find out if your potential employees and volunteers have a criminal history before hiring them with new LexisNexis background screening services.One in every 31 adults is under some form of correctional control, meaning probation, parole, or incarcerated in jail or prison (Pew Center on the States 2009).

Odds are, it’s not a matter of “if” you’ll encounter applicants with a criminal history, but “when.”

However, if you know about an individual’s background on the front end—before bringing them into your organization—you can make better informed decisions that help you:
• Protect the populations you serve
• Preserve and advance the reputation of your organization
• Promote community safety.

Sign up for LexisNexis volunteer screening today. LexisNexis offers NRPA members one of the easiest, most efficient, and in-depth background checking resources in the industry. You’ll receive deeply discounted pricing, plus there’s no cost to sign up and no monthly fee—you only pay for the searches you perform.
