Provides for a sex offender registry check for youth organization volunteers who have direct contact with youths under the age of 18

This bill requires youth organizations (like sports leagues, clubs, or religious groups that use volunteers to supervise children) to conduct sex offender registry checks before allowing volunteers with direct contact with youth under 18 to serve. Organizations must check the statewide registry using a specific phone number before a volunteer begins, inform the volunteer about the check, and give them the option to withdraw before the check is done. Organizations cannot allow individuals listed on the registry to volunteer in roles involving direct youth contact, and must complete initial checks for all current volunteers by January 1, 2026. Violations carry small civil penalties ($100 for first offense, up to $200 for repeat offenses).
