Navigate to the Pennsylvania Child Welfare Portal (CWP):

https://www.compass.state.pa.us/cwis/public/home

Click on the "Individual Login" button.

Click on the "Access My Clearances" button.

Read the "Learn More" page and scroll to the bottom.  Click the "Continue" button.

Enter the username and password that you chose when you first created a CWP individual account.  Then click the "Login" button.

On the next page, select which method you would like for second factor authentication: answering several of the security questions you selected when creating your Keystone ID, or a "secret" code emailed to the email account you provided the CWP.

Once you have successfully answered the security questions or received and entered the emailed security code, you will be asked whether your device is "private" or "public."  If you select "private," some login information may be saved on your device to make loging in quicker in the future.  If you select "public," the information will not be saved to the computer you are using and you will need to go through the whole login process the next time you log in.

After the login process is complete, your child abuse history clearances page will show the results of previous search(es).  Click on the "Results" link to download a PDF file of the clearance certification.  Print this downloaded file and give it to the church office.

After downloading the results, you may logout of your CWP account.
