Each of these checks most be initiated and the NSOPW results must be verified and documented priorto the Ally beginning his/her term of service. Any additional criminal history cheekyour agency chooses to perform is at its own cost. Public Allies may choose to share the results of its criminal history checks with your agency. An Ally who has passed the NSOPW and awaiting results of the state and FBI checks may begin service, so long as they are physically accompanied while working with individuals from a vulnerable population, which is defined as someone under the age of 18, over the age of 60, or having a disability. Physical accompaniment can be provided by: • An authorized representative who has previously been cleared for such access; • Afamily member or legal guardian of the vulnerable individual; • An individual authorized by nature of his/her profession to have recurring access to the vulnerable individual, such as an education or medical professional. If an Ally is required to be accompanied while in service with your agency, you must document the dates, times, names and signatures of the individuals providing accompaniment. 3. Member Expectations A. Each Public Allies AmeriCorps Member has entered into a "Member Contract" that clearly outlines the expectations, code of conduct and graduation requirements for each Member. As direct supervisors of the Publiclllies-4meriCorps Members, it is essential that you read, understand and uphold those policies. Should you have any questions, please contact Alicia Gregory Program Director at AliciagCpublicallies.org. B. During the term of service, Members are expected to provide capacity building services to your organization. As a general rule, capacity building activities are indirect services that enable organizations to provide more, better and sustained direct services • Intended results of capacity building include the support or enhancement of a program delivery model, increasing expanding or enhancing services, and enabling the organization to provide a sustained level of more or better direct services after your term of service has ended. In general, capacity building activities are not solely intended to support the administration or operations of the organization, or activities that increase capacity during your term of service, but are not sustained when you leave.

Follow directions. iii. Direct concerns, problems, and suggestions to his/her PublicAllies Program bfanager or appropriate staff member.
