National NonProfit Group Teams with MyBackgroundCheck.com for Background Checks

National Council of Non-Profit Associations (NCNA) has partnered with MyBackgroundCheck.com a leading consumer background check portal, in an effort to provide a complete risk management program to the non-profit industry. MyBackgroundCheck.com has introduced the Volunteer Tracking System (VTS), which comprehensively tracks volunteers in a network-like system, enabling a thorough, cost-efficient background check program for all member organizations.

Non-profit organizations strive to benefit millions of people throughout the world. With rising concern for the safety of those served by volunteers with criminal histories, NCNA aims to bring screening standards to the non-profit industry. Background checks are necessary to keeping predators out of these organizations and protecting the back bone of the non-profit sector.

Depending mostly on donated funds, background check programs seem out of reach for many organizations. According to a study released last month by the National Center for Victims of Crime (www.ncvc.org), 27 percent of volunteer organizations surveyed did not conduct any type of background checks and the number one reason was the cost. NCNA has always recognized this concern and has partnered with MyBackgroundCheck.com to empower non-profit organizations with cost-effective technology to screen volunteers and a risk management program to protect their employees, volunteers, and the people they serve.

"The nonprofit sector thrives on the hard work of millions of volunteers. Performing thorough background checks on those volunteers allows nonprofit organizations to continue to operate with ethics and integrity. MyBackgroundCheck.com is a welcome partner in upholding these values," said Audrey Alvarado, PhD., Executive Director of NCNA.

The VTS risk management program features a Denied Parties List. The list includes all volunteers who were found to have a criminal record or adverse behaviors reported by an organization. If an applicant is on the list, there is no need to perform an additional background check. This feature alone saves non-profits thousands of dollars each year. When background checks are necessary, MyBackgroundCheck.com provides flexible packages and a time-saving web interface to organize and track volunteer screening.

"Background screening is an often overlooked component of an overall risk management strategy. Through our VTS system we are providing important risk management features that enhance the overall effectiveness of any non-profit organization's background screening program," said Art Ferreira, Vice President of MyBackgroundCheck.com.
