Offer Your Expertise

YouthQuest is always seeking qualified vendors (persons or organizations that provide a paid service at any YouthQuest site) who offer safe, engaging and exciting learning experiences and materials that align with our program mission and objectives listed below. To be considered as a qualified vendor for YouthQuest, please follow the instructions below:

1. Complete Vendor Application – Complete the application below.
2. Required Background Checks
   • ALL vendors and their staff working with YouthQuest are required to complete a background check through the Michigan ICHAT and a Central Registry Clearance at the DHS office. YouthQuest staff will process the ICHAT information (you will be asked to submit the full names and birth dates for yourself and all staff that would be onsite with program participants) and vendors and staff will be responsible for securing Central Registry Clearance prior to starting with the program. There is no fee associated with either check.
   • It is the responsibility of the vendor to report to YouthQuest any change in status of one of its representative and/or withdraw said individual(s) from providing services through their corporation or organization to YouthQuest.
3. Required Paperwork – All vendors will be required to complete a contract, turn in a W-9 Form and submit regular invoices for payment once approved as a qualified YouthQuest Vendor.
