Section 414-310-0280 - Central Background Registry Enrollment

(1) The operator, all school-age center staff and any person 18 years of age or older, who may have unsupervised access to children shall be enrolled in CCLD's Central Background Registry prior to the issuance of an initial or renewal certification. An individual who is the owner or the principal of an entity that is the owner of a school-age center must be enrolled in the CBR to be on the center premises or present with children off-site during child care hours.

(2) A school-age center must have written confirmation from CCLD that staff 18 years of age or older are enrolled or conditionally enrolled in the CBR before the staff may be on the child care premises or present with children off-site during child care hours.

(3) All caregivers and other individuals that are required to be enrolled in the CBR and are on-site must maintain current enrollment in the CBR at all times while the center license is active.

(4) Staff conditionally enrolled in the CBR may function in their staff position but shall not have unsupervised access to children until the center has confirmed with CCLD the individual is enrolled.

(5) Any visitor to the school-age center or other adult who is not enrolled in the CBR shall not have unsupervised access to children.

(6) A school-age center must have safeguards in place to prevent a visitor's unsupervised access to children, including a sign-in and sign-out process that captures:

(a) The individual's name and relationship to the center (e.g. volunteer, vendor, guest, etc.);

(b) Arrival and departure times; and

(c) Name of qualified staff responsible for monitoring the individual's presence and accompanying the individual while on the premises.

(7) A school-age center must ensure that individuals whose CBR enrollment has been revoked, denied, or suspended are not on the premises during child care hours or have contact with children in care.

(8) If additional information is needed to assess a person's ability to care for children or to have access to children, CCLD may require references, an evaluation by a physician, counselor, or other qualified person, or other information.
