I certify that the information provided on this Application is true and understand that it is subject to independent verification. My failure to provide truthful answers will result in consequences up to and including refusal to consider the application or immediate termination as a volunteer. If selected, I will comply with all requirements of WNCC volunteers and the Host Family Volunteer Program and acknowledge that Western Nebraska Community College may, at its discretion, terminate my participation in the program at any time.

I understand that work with minors and/or other students in the Host Family Volunteer Program is contingent upon consent to and successful completion of any required background check, which includes a criminal background check and a sex offender registry check. A criminal conviction will not automatically disqualify an applicant from volunteering at WNCC and background check information will be used in a confidential, non-discriminatory manner consistent with state and federal law.

I acknowledge that by writing my name I am agreeing.
In signing this release, I acknowledge and represent that I have read the Waiver & Release Agreement, understand and agree to be bound by it, and sign it voluntarily; I am at least nineteen (19) years of age and fully competent.
I acknowledge that by writing my name I am agreeing.
