Background Checks
In the past, we have used our church’s system to process background checks. We use “Protect My Ministry”, which is all electronic and fairly easy to use. However, it can get expensive.
We have also had Hidden Acres run background checks. They collected authorizations and information on a paper form which was very quick to complete. Although, having SSNs on papers does make people nervous. The system they use is “PreSearch” and they have been very happy with them.
This year we are using “TruthFinder.com”. They offer unlimited background checks for a flat monthly fee. This allows us to run background checks without needing to ask for their SSN at all. People appreciate that
