A benefit for Canadian camps is a national sponsorship with Sterling Backcheck (myBackCheck) to economically and efficiently obtain criminal record checks for camp staff.
Sterling Backcheck, Canada’s largest background check company, provides the infrastructure for camps to order, store and manage Criminal Record Checks for volunteers, members and employees. Checks can be ordered online and completed within 24 hours (next business day).
Sterling Backcheck donates $2.00 to the CCA for every paid request performed for any member camp. In turn, the CCA returns $1.00 to the Provincial Camping Association for every check submitted from the province. Sterling Backcheck has processed thousands of requests for Canadian camps.

Frequently there are concerns expressed by Camp Directors and senior staff regarding criminal record checks for individuals under 18 years of age. This paper, authored by the federal Department of Justice and taken from their website may assist in raising awareness as to when criminal record checks can be requested, by whom, and what information will be released – http://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/cj-jp/yj-jj/tools-outils/sheets-feuillets/pdf/recor-dossi.pdf
Individuals under the age of 18 can be asked to obtain a criminal record check. Sterling Backcheck can facilitate the process for you.
