Links back to detail
Each state opens its own requirements page in the parent window.
What it shows
Every state regulates volunteers who work with children. They differ in whether those rules also reach older adults and people with disabilities — usually the first thing that decides whether a requirement applies to a given organization.

Please keep this framing if you republish it. Populations are read from each state's own cited statutes; the map does not rank how strict a state is, and it is general information rather than legal advice. Anyone relying on it should confirm with their state agency, licensor, or counsel.
