New Adult Volunteers (18 yrs and older)
Volunteer Application & Screening Instructions
All new volunteers and paid workers are required to complete a volunteer application process and undergo a national criminal background check in accordance with the Child Protection Policy of Child Evangelism Fellowship, Inc.
In today's society child abuse and child abuse accusations are occurring daily. Therefore it is important that CEF® takes steps to protect the children to whom we minister and protect our workers from false accusations.
There are three parts to the volunteer approval process. All three steps are required to be completed before you can serve in a CEF ministry. Here are the three parts:
1. Volunteer application and background check
(There is a $6 fee to complete this part - have your debit or credit card handy before you begin)
2. Interview and Photo ID Check (completed by your Team Leader for Good News Club volunteers)
3. Quick Start Training (for Good News Club volunteers and teachers of party clubs)
For Good News Club volunteers, once all of these parts are completed and you are approved, you will be issued a Good News Club (GNC) name tag, from our office, with the current year, to indicate you have undergone the necessary screening. It is essential that you wear this name tag when you serve at a GNC.
