volunteer background checks

You can make a difference by GIVING YOUR TIME

At The Simple Church, we want every person who walks through our doors, especially our children and students, to experience a safe, caring, and trustworthy environment.
Many of our volunteer roles place us in close proximity to minors, so we ask that all volunteers complete a background check as part of the onboarding process.

This helps us maintain high standards of safety and care for our church family, and we are grateful for your willingness to stand with us in that commitment.

Instructions (read carefully)

To help us locate the correct records and avoid delays:

1. Enter the name you have legally used for the past 10 years.

 This is the name that would appear on official records such as your driver’s license, tax records, or legal documents. Do NOT enter a birth certificate or maiden name unless you have used that name within the last 10 years.

2. If you have used any other legal names within the past 10 years
 (for example: a maiden name, previous married name, or legal name change)
Please include those when the form asks for other names used or complete a separate background check with your other name(s).

3. If the name you enter for the background check is different from what you want on your volunteer name tag:
Please let us know on the form so we can make your name tag the way you prefer.
