Overnight & residential
An overnight camp hands counselors round-the-clock access to children — cabins, showers, and lights-out included. Nothing in youth programming requires more careful vetting. VolunteerBadge clears every counselor and staff member for $5 with biometric identity verification.
Sleeping quarters, changing areas, and overnight supervision are the conditions child-protection standards scrutinize most. Camp accreditation bodies and insurers require a documented background check on every person living on-site — campers' parents are trusting you with their kids overnight.
A residential camp gives counselors 24-hour access — cabins, showers, and lights-out included. No setting in youth programming carries more trust, which is why every counselor and volunteer needs a thorough, documented background check, not a quick name search.
Yes — anyone living on-site or with access to campers, including support staff and night watch. Each is a single $5 check with identity verification and a full criminal and registry search.
Start well before arrivals — but even a late hire is workable: most checks return same-day to 48 hours via phone-based verification.
Screen everyone living on-site for $5 — the trust an overnight camp demands.
