The North East Recreation Commission, and our events, are made possible only through the time & talents of our Volunteer Coaches
In order to give NE Kids the best experience possible, we need the help of knowledgeable coaches in our community.
​
Above all, the safety and welfare of NE children is paramount, all volunteers will need to pass a series of checks and maintain their clearances in order to work with any children.
​
Here are helpful links for our potential volunteers:
-
PA Criminal Background - the PA Access to Criminal History (PATCH) web site, which provides NERC a review of any criminal activity. This check should only take a few minutes and is free for Volunteers.
-
Child Abuse History Certification - this form verifies any issues of Child Abuse, this is also free for Volunteers.
​
Once obtained, all proof of clearances must be provided to Jim Wargo @ email​​​​​
