Help reduce risk and maintain a safe environment with background checks on all your volunteers and employees. This helps you select the right background-checkspeople, prevent child abuse from happening when children are in your care, and minimize liability.

We’ve partnered with industry leading Protect My Ministry to provide you with fast, affordable and thorough background checks. Integrating with KidCheck and our partner Protect My Ministry makes background checks even easier, keeps the information organized and provides immediate access to results as all documentation is automatically saved in your secure KidCheck account tied to each individual in the “people” section.  Available with KidCheck Plus and Premier editions.
