The information contained in this application is correct to the best of my knowledge. I authorize any references or churches listed in this application to release any information they may have regarding my character and fitness to work with children, youth, or developmentally disabled persons, and I release all such references from liability for any damage that may result from furnishing such evaluations.
I understand that if I work in a volunteer capacity and should my character or morals be inappropriate and/or criminal, my volunteer assistance shall be “at will” and that Lockport Alliance Church shall be entitled to terminate my volunteer capacity at any time, without expressed cause or prior notice, regardless of any other oral or written statements by the church prior to, at, or following the date of commencement of volunteer services, unless set out in writing, dated, or signed by both parties.
I have read, understand, and agree to abide by Policy #2020, “Church Ministry Volunteers Policy With Focus on Child Abuse,” which mirrors The Christian and Missionary Alliance’s Child Abuse Policy, referring to children/youth less than eighteen years of age and developmentally disabled persons of any age.
State government provides a criminal records check service to nonprofit organizations. Use of that service helps to ensure a safer environment for those whom we minister, as well as protection for volunteers, should a false allegation occur. Because attorneys for The Christian and Missionary Alliance recommend that occasional use of such services can be important, I consent to Lockport Alliance Church conducting a criminal records check, as deemed necessary.
