Background checks; providers licensed by DBHDS. Allows community services boards and providers licensed by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services to hire for compensation a person who has been convicted of not more than one offense of assault and battery of a law-enforcement officer under §18.2-57, or an equivalent offense in another if (i) the person has been granted a simple pardon if the offense was a felony committed in Virginia, or the equivalent if the offense was committed in another state; (ii) more than 10 years have elapsed since the conviction; and (iii) the hiring provider determines, based upon a screening assessment, that the criminal behavior was substantially related to the applicant's substance abuse and that the person has been successfully rehabilitated and is not a risk to consumers based on his criminal history background and his substance abuse history, notwithstanding the statutory prohibition on employment of a person otherwise convicted of assault and battery.
