The Missionary Volunteer CAYOCA role is for young adults over the age of 18.
Missionaries will have a particularly important role during camp that differs greatly from a traditional adult volunteer-chaperone.

VIRTUS TRAINING AND BACKGROUND CHECK

All adult volunteers must complete the VIRTUS Training and the Background Check process. If the adult volunteer has never registered and completed the VIRTUS Training and Background Check process, it should be done online at this link: https://www.scdiocese.org/safe-environment-office.
This process must be done with a computer, not a smart phone or tablet. An instructional tutorial is included in the pre-registration process.

If the adult volunteer has previously completed VIRTUS Training and the Background Check Process, then we still need to conduct another background check. The easiest way to do this is to give our office the person’s name and email address; then our Safe Environment Coordinator, Dan Ellis, will email an invitation to each person which will enable them to go online and give consent to conduct a background check. If the adult volunteer prefers to submit their consent in paper form, please download the “ESR Background Check Form”, print it, fill it out and send the form to: Dan Ellis, Safe Environment Coordinator, Diocese of Sioux City,
1821 Jackson Street, P O Box 3379, Sioux City, IA 51102-3379.
