Wrong.

From the "FIRST Youth Protection and Adult Leadership Policy"

Quote:
Complete reports color coded “green” represent a clear report; reports color coded “red” represent a report that is not clear and will need further review by the Volunteer Resources Manager at FIRST headquarters. A report that is coded red does not mean that a criminal history exists for the individual, or that the person is disqualified – it only indicates that the report requires further review.

If a volunteer report comes back coded red, send an email to “volunteer@usfirst.org” providing FIRST with the name, address, phone number, and team number of the individual who was screened. FIRST will review the report, will follow-up directly with the applicant, and will notify you of whether or not the applicant is eligible to participate as a FIRST Team Mentor. Details of individual reports will not be released to anyone other than the person who was screened, and will only be made available in the instance of an appeal.
FIRST will review the case, then tell the team leader if the adult can participate or not, but not the reason for the redflag or for being turned away. The team leader will not be allowed to see any information that may come up in the search, just that there was a red flag. It does not mean there was even a criminal history! Mayhaps they were just CHARGED with something 10 years ago and proven innocent, but they might still be redflagged because of that.
