A current police check is required for people to volunteer at CCC.   We can provide a CVF number for volunteers so you can get your police check for a reduced rate of $18.40 - the link to apply is through the Victorian Police. You can apply here.
Working with Children Check
We request all volunteers who may come into contact with children at any time during their time in the Centre, obtain a Working with Children Check (WWWC). A WWWC application is free of charge for volunteers, and once the check has been issued it will be valid for five years. You can apply here. 
Training is offered to our volunteers in areas suited to them. We also offer student placements and believe on the job training is an excellent way to gain experience.
