Please do not call the agency, just stop by the facility to pick up an application and get information regarding fingerprinting. The best time to pick up an application is during hours of operation.  Students need to take in consideration that fingerprinting takes 2 - 3 weeks, so please make sure you make contact with this agency in the beginning of the semester for waiting until the end of the semester may result in non-completion of the program.  Volunteers can not work unless fingerprints are cleared.
