Non-member volunteers (NMV) require a Police Record Check (PRC) when:
•
working with girls during unit meetings more than twice in the Guiding year
•
volunteering at a GGC day camp or overnight camp
•
volunteering at any other day or overnight events
•
they are a Treasurer handling GGC funds
•
they are a support person who accompanies a person with a disability to GGC meetings and events
To support you in getting a PRC, Girl Guides of Canada-Guides du Canada has partnered with BackCheck, to provide a simple, secure way to obtain police record checks. BackCheck offers a reduced rate of $23.00 to non-member volunteers applying through the Girl Guides, Ontario Council link. Information on how to complete the PRC, and the link to the site, will be sent to you after we receive your completed Non-Member Volunteer Application Forms.
If a non-member volunteer has a PRC from their local police service, the original may be submitted to the Membership Administrative Assistant for verification only if the PRC is dated no more than 12 months prior to its date of submission to GGC. Copies are not acceptable. Please note: the original PRC will be returned to the non-member.
To register as a non-member volunteer, complete a
Non-Member Volunteer Application form (A.7) and
Image Release form (IR.1). The forms must be printed and signed; electronic signatures are not acceptable.
Return the completed forms to the Membership team by email, fax, or mail to:
