The Screening and Selection Toolkit is designed to provide organizations with tools to effectively screen and select employees and volunteers to work with vulnerable populations.

The Toolkit is based upon the basic premise that staff and volunteers who serve vulnerable populations should be carefully screened. It should be used as a set of guidelines for certain pre-hire and employment practices. It is not legal advice, however. Employers using the Toolkit should consult with their attorney to ensure that they are complying with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.
