Background Investigations for Employees and Volunteers

All new employees, and all volunteers who work with children and youth, should be carefully screened.  Each congregation should register with IntelliCorp , which will do a search in your state, or in the national data base, for a full background check for sexual offenders or criminal records on each individual. CPIP makes that service available to member churches at a  reduced cost and withoug having to pay an activation charge.

Signing up with IntelliCorp:

1. Registration

Call IntelliCorp's Sales Department at 1-800-539-3717, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Eastern standard time.  A customer service representative will direct you to the registration page on their website www.intellicorp.net. Enter the promotional code NONPROF1.
