GSHCC’s mandated reporter training for our volunteers launched
February 1, 2022. We encourage you to complete this as soon as
possible so your volunteer experience is not interrupted. As an
appreciated volunteer, we know you understand the importance of
keeping girls safe.
The State of California recently
adopted Assembly Bill 506, adding all youth service
organizations to the list of organizations whose volunteers and staff
must complete training in child abuse and neglect reporting, become
mandated reporters, and undergo Live Scan background checks (which
you'll learn more about in Phase 2 of our roll-out).
The mandated reporter training can be met in one of two ways: by
completing the two-hour
online training provided by the Office of Child Abuse
Prevention in the State Department of Social Services, OR
if you have taken the training within the last two years, and it meets
the state’s AB 506 requirements, you can upload proof of
completion.
We ask that you please complete the
mandated reporter training by Thursday, June 30, 2022.
Our commitment is to provide as much support as possible
to ensure our volunteers are not severely impacted by time/travel
issues. We will continue to update you on this process, but want to
make you all aware of the new requirements.
