Find answers to your legal question.





Can I work with children if I caught a felony 7 years ago?

I payed my dept to society, and then some, and I wish to work with at risk children. Is it possible?

Not good......especially in these times.......everybody does an extensive back ground check when kids are involved....you may want to look else where.........sorry........

Depending on state laws, felonies remain on your record for 20 years. So, if the prospect employer does a background check, then no you would not be able to.

You would have to disclose that you were convicted of a felony and state that on your application and during the interview process if they ask.

Regardless of the fact that you say you paid your debt to society; you need to realize that at risk children need a good role model. If your conviction had nothing to do with children someone may give you a probationary trial at working with these children. The children are very special to almost everyone so if your felony involved children then in the name of all that is Holy stay away from them.
