DISCLOSURE AND AUTHORIZATION FORM TO OBTAIN BACKGROUND REPORTS FOR VOLUNTEER PURPOSES
Please Read Carefully Before Signing the Authorization
DISCLOSURE
In considering you as a volunteer, Lift Disability Network will order a background report about you that we obtain from a consumer reporting agency, Protect My Ministry, Inc.
The background report may contain information concerning your character, general reputation, personal characteristics, and mode of living. The types of information that may be ordered include but are not limited to: Social Security number verification; criminal, public, educational and, as appropriate, driving records checks; verification of prior employment; reference, licensing and certification checks; and drug testing results. The information may be obtained from private and public record sources, including personal interviews with your associates, friends, and neighbors. (An “investigative consumer report” is a background report that includes information from such personal interviews, except in California where that term means any background report.)
Under the FCRA, before the Company can obtain a background report about you for employment or volunteer purposes, we must have your written authorization. Before we take adverse action on the basis, in whole or in part, of information in that report, you will be provided a copy of that report, the name, address, and telephone number of the consumer reporting agency, and a summary of your rights under the FCRA.
BACKGROUND REPORT AUTHORIZATION
I have read and understand the foregoing Disclosure, and authorize LIFT DISABILITY NETWORK to obtain and rely upon background reports in considering me as a volunteer. By my signature below, I authorize Lift Disability Network to obtain any such reports and to share the information received with any person involved in the volunteer decision about me.
I also agree that this Disclosure and Authorization in original, faxed, photocopied, or electronic (including electronically signed) form will be valid for any consumer reports that may be requested about me by or on behalf of Lift Disability Network.
