Criminal Record Checks

All Volunteers MUST have a Criminal Record Check (CRC) completed prior to volunteering at Auguston, as well as safety training and orientation, and the necessary forms submitted. Thank you for your support in completing the necessary requirements.

New CRC Process

Reminder for Volunteers

Volunteers who work with children or vulnerable adults are required to complete a CRC as per the Criminal Records Review Act. The CRC must be completed through the Abbotsford School District, who is registered with the Criminal Records Review Program (CRRP). If a volunteer provides a Police/RCMP check, they will be required to complete a new one through us and the CRRPs online system.

Additional Information

The Criminal Record Check process is now set up ONLINE.
The turn around with the new online CRC program is 2-3 weeks.
