Our Tuesday night kids clubs provide kids in Grades 1-4 a terrific opportunity to make friends, learn about faith, and have a ton of fun. Help make that happen as a boys or girls leader! Kids clubs run from September-May. Want to learn more? Email Caroll Cyr at

READY TO START?

At Valley, the safety of our children is a priority. To work with kids, you must complete a process called KidSafe.

SAFETY FIRST

To ensure the safety of our children and those working with them, either at the church or offsite at an organized church event,  we require that all adults (18 and older) complete the KidSafe process.

Based on a person's character, background and experience, this process determines suitability for working with minors (infants through 17-year-olds) at Valley.

THE PROCESS

• Each person completes a KidSafe application, including current contact information and the email addresses of three (3) character references. These three references must not be related to the applicant. 
• References are contacted to check on the applicant's suitability for working with children.
• The applicant receives an email directing them to the Secure Search Website.
• The applicant must go to that site and give permission for a background check to be run.
• The background check is completed and assessed by a Database Coordinator.
• The applicant receives an email from the Database Coordinator with a link to the Ministry Safe Sexual Abuse Awareness Training.
• An interview is conducted with the applicant by a church staff member or an approved interviewer.
• Once the background check is clear, the references found to be positive, the online training is completed, and the interviewer determines the applicant is suitable to work with children, the process is complete.

Thank you for your willingness to serve and for taking the time to walk through this process.
