The National Child Protection Act of 1993 (NCPA), Public Law 103-209, as amended by the Volunteers for Children Act (VCA), Public Law 105-251 (Section 221 and 222 of the Crime Identification Technology Act of 1998), authorizes certain nongovernmental organizations to conduct a fingerprint based national criminal history record check to determine an individual's fitness to care for the safety and well-being of children, the elderly and people with disabilities. This federal Act allows organizations, designated as a qualified entity, to make a fitness determination based on national criminal history record information provided by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) through the Illinois State Police. There are specific criteria that qualified entities must adhere to in order to obtain FBI criminal history record information pursuant to the NCPA/VCA.
