Our church and denomination require the criminal background checks... they must be redone every two years. If there is ANY offense against children, we can't use the individual. We've had a few people hesitant to fill them out, but they've ben reassured that it's confidential... only the children's pastor sees them and they are kept locked up.
Contact your local police or sheriff's department. They run the checks for us for free because we are a church. It can't hurt to ask!
