Background Screening Services

for Churches

Trusted Screening for Ministry Teams

Paravel Risk Management provides ethically sourced, role-specific background checks for faith-based organizations using IDI Core and complementary verification tools. Our protocols are customized by role—from volunteers to pastoral staff—balancing safety, stewardship, and privacy.

Standard screening options include identity verification, criminal history checks, and sex offender registry searches. For leadership roles, additional vetting may include civil litigation review, education and employment verification, professional license checks, and structured reference interviews. Optional services like social media scans and motor vehicle reports are also available.

All results are interpreted and reported with clarity—no raw data dumps, no diagnostic labeling.
