Software to help increase security
Unfortunately these days, churches need to be just as concerned with security as businesses. Even more so, churches need to protect the childrent that are left in their care.
Are you confident that children are being released to an authorized person?
Roll Call's child check in / check out system can help ensure that only authorized individuals are allowed to pick up the children. When the child is checked in, a name tag with a random security number is printed. A parent tag with that same number is printed as well. Upon check out, the parent tag and child's name tag are compared. If the numbers match, the child can be released.
Additionally, with the check in system, you can print check in rosters so the Sunday school teacher knows exactly who they are responsible for and also any allergy or special need information.
Have your volunteers been cleared to work with children?
Are you running background checks on your volunteers? Once you get the results do you need a way to record that information? That's where Roll Call comes in. For each person in Roll Call you can record the fact that a background check has been requested. Once the results are received that information can be recorded as well. As part of this process you assign a clearance level to that person.
As part of your security plan, you can run periodic reports to identify volunteers in your Sunday School groups who have an outdated or incomplete background check.
