The Corporation for National and Community Service invites public input regarding a Corporation requirement that grantees conduct and document criminal background checks on grant-funded employees and participants who, on a recurring basis, have access to children and other vulnerable populations, including the elderly and individuals with disabilities. In addition, the Corporation seeks input concerning whether any category of individuals should, on the basis of their criminal histories, be disqualified from working or participating in a Corporation-funded project in which they have such access.
