Criminal or Juvenile Record Sample Clauses

Criminal or Juvenile Record. Because the eligibility of individuals with criminal records has not been restricted, programs must make case-by-case determinations. However, if your program provides service in particularly sensitive areas, such as working with young children, you should consider whether the participation of individuals with certain criminal backgrounds would have a significant negative impact on the physical or psychological health of either members or individuals served. Similarly, programs should consider carefully the impact of participation by an individual convicted of a violent felony or an offense related to the project activities (for example, someone with a burglary record where the program repairs the homes of elderly residents). The same recommendations apply for someone adjudicated as a juvenile offender. Programs should follow the State of New Jersey’s guidelines related to placing individuals with criminal records in activities involving children or individuals considered vulnerable (i.e. the elderly or individuals who are either physically or mentally disabled). The Xxxxxx Foundation and The College of New Jersey are not liable for any negative consequences resulting from inadequate screening of members in particularly sensitive areas. This also could affect a program’s ability to obtain appropriate liability protection. Thus, the provisions require programs with members who have substantial contact with vulnerable populations (children, elderly, or the disabled) to conduct a search of the State Criminal Registry and the National Sex Offender Registry. These checks will be conducted using Choicepoint, Inc., an on-line search system. The cost is covered by The Xxxxxx Foundation and The College of New Jersey. Members are required to sign an authorization form prior to the Program conducting the background screening. In the event that the member has a criminal record, the Program Director will contact the appropriate supervisor to discuss whether or not the current placement is appropriate for the member given the offense(s). Members are not to be left alone with a member of a vulnerable population until the background check is complete.
