Parent Helpers require the signing of the Code of Conduct, an Expectations discussion, and recording the role in MyScouts (this task completes this last requirement).

In addition to the Code of Conduct and Expectations discussion, overnight helpers must complete Safe Scouting for Parents and obtain a Police Records Check for the Vulnerable Sector.
