<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;line-height:115%">The 2022 Summer Camp season is around the corner, and preparations must be made soon. Summer Camp Background Checks are conducted and adjudicated by The Florida Department of Children and Families
(DCF) through the Care Provider Background Screening Clearinghouse as mandated by
<a href="http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?mode=View%20Statutes&SubMenu=1&App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=409.175&URL=0400-0499/0409/Sections/0409.175.html">
<span style="color:blue">Florida Statute 409.175</span></a>. All new and returning summer camp personnel (owners, operators, administrative staff, employees, and volunteers) who provide care to minors must be screened and determined eligible by DCF via a Level
2 Fingerprint-based Background Check before working, training, or volunteering for the camp.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;line-height:115%">Summer Camps held virtually still require a background check due to the live virtual interaction. Please coordinate with the HR Background Check Team to submit the Summer Camp Roster appropriately.<o:p></o:p></p>

All Summer Camp Candidate DCF Clearinghouse Forms have been updated. Please replace all previously saved versions with the 2022 versions.<o:p></o:p></p>
