Volunteers serve in thousands of roles in our communities, churches and youth sports programs.  Priority Research screens hundreds of thousands of volunteers every year.

Priority Research's volunteers screening solutions meet industry FCRA compliance standards.  All records are re-verified for accuracy according to FCRA 613 compliance, which requires volunteer background information to be checked for accuracy in the same manner used to verify employee information.

Volunteer Background Check

• SSN Verification and Address History – Verify the identity of the applicant, by verifying their SSN matches their name and date of birth provided.
• Criminal Searches – A national background check, including a national sex offender search is the basic search recommended plus additional court searches in some instances.
• Online consultation with recommendations for background checks by state.  See our interactive map with recommendations.
• Verity Paperless Solution and Verity Applicant Pay Solution (VPS and VAPS)- Do your volunteers need to apply and pay online for their background checks? Try our paperless solution and save time and money.

Priority Research has always advocated accuracy in the volunteer screening market and has helped re-define the standards for volunteer screening.
