Nevada AB521 revises child protection provisions by requiring background checks for employees of certain facilities and organizations.
Nevada AB521 amends existing law to enhance child protection measures. It mandates that applicants for licenses to operate facilities, hospitals, agencies, programs, or homes submit fingerprints for background checks. It also requires these entities to obtain written authorization from employees and independent contractors for the release of information from the Statewide Central Registry to determine if there have been substantiated reports of child abuse or neglect. Facilities must terminate the employment of individuals with such reports.
