Independent background checks
Assist 4 Today does not run background checks. If you'd like extra peace of mind, either party can order a personal criminal background check from an outside provider such as Checkr and choose to share the results with the other person. Bookers may ask for a recent report, and assistants may offer one, before agreeing to work together.
Get a personal check from CheckrCheckr is an independent company; Assist 4 Today is not affiliated with it, does not receive or verify these reports, and does not show badges based on them. Sharing a report is always optional.
If you are in immediate danger, contact local emergency services.
