2020-04-20T18:43:23-07:00

Last month, the U.S. Youth Soccer Association (along with its California affiliate) settled a lawsuit to the tune of $8.2 million dollars for failing to run background checks on their volunteer coaches—a decision that led to the molestation of a 13-year-old girl by a coach. Had a background check been run, the organization would have known that this coach had a past criminal history, including domestic violence and battery against his spouse, which would have disqualified him from preying on innocent young victims.

It’s hard to believe that summer is flying by so fast, but many schools will be back in session in a couple of weeks! As schools begin a new year, they will be relying on parents, college students, and other community members to help implement programs, assist in the classroom, chaperone field trips, and provide students with the opportunity for more one-on-one attention.
