“Something is Better Than Nothing…” This is a legal perspective Focused on legal risk mitigation

instead of safety of children Cheap background check provides

false sense of security Limited background checks expose:

Children, visitors, staff to risk of harm

Organization to risk of theft Organization to risk of liability

for lack of due diligence Quality screening mitigates legal

risk and increases safety of children

positions with access to children
