How Bend-La Pine Schools Streamlined Volunteer Management with Integrated Raptor and JDP

The Raptor VolunteerSafe and JDP integrated solution delivered measurable results that extend far beyond administrative efficiency.  

• Automated Background Checks & Approvals 
  By automating background checks and streamlining application routing, Raptor and JDP reduced repetitive data entry and accelerated approvals while minimizing errors in referencing multiple screening sources.

  Background check processing time decreased from 3-7 days to just 1-3 days, dramatically reducing volunteer frustration and up to 30 phone calls daily during peak seasons to manageable volumes of real-time inquiries.  

• Improved Compliance 
  Automated compliance features ensure proper screening for student transport volunteers and state-specific requirements, like Oregon’s sexual misconduct database checks. This streamlined process significantly reduces the risk of errors and improves compliance with the district’s internal policies. 
• Centralized Volunteer Information & Processes 
  The system created consistency in tracking restricted volunteers by centralizing all volunteer information in one system. The integration also allowed for automated filtering and flagging of volunteers based on specific criteria, such as driving records, ensuring that restricted volunteers were appropriately identified and managed.
