Pennsylvania requires Child Abuse History Clearance Forms from all adult volunteers who work with children.
This requirement applies to all volunteers, 18 and older, at Peace Camp.  For Peace Camp 2026, we will need copies of your documents by Friday, June 26, 2026.

If you have already obtained clearances within the past 60 months(5 years), either as an employee or a volunteer, you can provide LEPOCO a copy of those clearances.

If you do not already have current clearances, please start this process as soon as possible.  (The process could take up to 6 weeks.)

The following certifications are required:

You can go directly to the site for each item:

• Criminal history from PA State Police:https://epatch.pa.gov/home
• Child Abuse history from PA DHS:https://www.compass.state.pa.us/cwis/public/home
  NOTE: The COMPASS website is not compatible with many handheld devices. (ugh)
  
• FBI fingerprint based federal criminal history (PA State Police):https://www.identogo.com/
  • Service Code: 1KG6ZJ
    NOTE: The fingerprint based federal criminal history is NOT required for volunteers who have been PA residents for the entirety of the last 10 years and will swear they are not disqualified from working with children.

The clearance process can all be done online, but you can get more information and download printable forms, using the link below:

You may want to download the child abuse history form prior to doing the on-line
process so you can gather the required information.
