(a) For a shelter facility or shelter home located outside New Jersey, the shelter facility or shelter home shall ensure that the director and each applicant, shelter facility or shelter home staff member, shelter home coordinator, shelter home parent, and shelter home household member meet all applicable laws and regulations in that state governing criminal history record background checks and child abuse record information checks that may be required as a condition of employment.

(b) In the event that criminal history record background checks and child abuse record information checks are not mandated in that state, the shelter facility or shelter home shall require that the director and each applicant, staff member, shelter home coordinator, shelter home parent, and shelter home household member make a disclosure of any criminal conviction. The results of the disclosure shall be made available to the Department, so that the Department can determine the suitability of the individual for certification, employment, or service at the shelter facility or shelter home during the time children who are residents of New Jersey are placed in the shelter facility or shelter home.
