RISE Background Check Process
AmeriCorps has now moved to an automated system for background checks and fingerprinting. This should speed up some processes and will not require members to pay for fingerprinting. There are two different programs that you will need to create accounts with to complete your 3 step background check.  Truescreen and Fieldprint need to be completed.
