Child abuse clearance for La Salle

[winterlights08]

I put this in the PA thread even though I live in NJ because it's for a PA school...I'm trying to locate info on obtaining a NJ child abuse clearance for La Salle. I found a couple different websites, but if someone could direct me towards the appropriate site, or offer a phone number, it would be very much appreciated.

Thanks! :)

First, I would call your program. I am currently living in a different state from the school I will be attending. I had to get background checks in the state my school is in and NOT the state I lived in. Call your school. Look on the website. There should be directions on how to do your background checks.

Thanks, I will be calling but thought I'd check here first. The website is clear on where to obtain the PA clearances, and the NJ background check, but not the NJ child abuse clearance.

Here's the website for the NJ state agncy that does the clearances; the details on how to request is towards the bottom of the page.

Thanks! I had found that site but wasn't sure if it was the right one :).

You only need a PA child abuse clearance for La Salle. There is no child abuse clearance for NJ.

Thanks, after I read the requirements closer, I figured that out. I'm all squared away!
