D.C. allowed checks of youth job hosts' and grant recipients' workers and volunteers

D.C.'s Department of Employment Services could check criminal and driving records. The check clause names workers and volunteers at host employers and grant recipients in the act's youth job programs. The agency had to follow D.C.'s child safety check law. The check clause does not repeat the youth-contact limit in the separate definition of covered providers. This authority took effect following the mayor's February 20, 2025, approval and lasted no longer than 90 days.

D.C.'s child safety check law applied to certain host and grant recipient workers and volunteers. They worked at hosts or grant recipients in the act's youth job programs and had direct contact with participating youth or unsupervised access to them. Although grant recipients were generally excluded as covered providers, this provision included their eligible workers and volunteers. This provision took effect following the mayor's February 20, 2025, approval and lasted no longer than 90 days.
