AI Summary
This bill establishes a central registry for conducting criminal history record background checks on prospective and current employees or volunteers of youth serving organizations, such as sports teams, leagues, and other organizations that provide activities or services for people under 18 years of age. The central registry will serve as a clearinghouse for collecting and disseminating the results of these background checks. The bill also requires organizations participating in the registry to register with the Department of Law and Public Safety and pay a registration fee. Additionally, the bill mandates that current employees or volunteers undergo a background check every two years, and it specifies the types of crimes or offenses that would disqualify an individual from serving in a youth serving organization.
