Summary

The bill amends state law so that any organization that provides athletic activities for people under 18 must obtain a criminal‑history check for each worker, volunteer or event organizer. Checks must be done through the Department of Law and Public Safety, cost the individual, and be repeated at least once a year. Organizations that fail to comply face civil fines and individuals who work while disqualified could be charged with a fourth‑degree crime.
