Health & Safety

Our centers can be in challenging areas in the community, so students should feel comfortable going into the neighborhoods where our schools are located. Would recommend that a student at least drives by the center prior to selecting it so that they know exactly where they would be completing their hours.

Additional requirements and/or considerations
  • Background Check (e.g. fingerprinting/livescan, driving record)
  • Driver's License
  • Health Check/Screening (e.g. temperature screening, COVID-19 test)
  • Must be 18 or older
  • TB Test
  • Vaccinations
  • RISK: Students may be working with behaviorally challenged populations.
  • SAFETY: Students are NOT PERMITTED to take photos or video while on site.
