A "barrier crime" is one that makes one ineligible for employment in areas such as child care, elder care, domestic aid and shelter and others. In Virginia (and it may be different in other states), Code § 63.2-1719 defines a barrier crime as:

"Offense" means a barrier crime and, in the case of child welfare agencies and foster and adoptive homes approved by child-placing agencies, (i) a conviction of any other felony not included in the definition of barrier crime unless five years have elapsed since conviction and (ii) a founded complaint of child abuse or neglect within or outside the Commonwealth. In the case of child welfare agencies and foster and adoptive homes approved by child-placing agencies, convictions shall include prior adult convictions and juvenile convictions or adjudications of delinquency based on a crime that would be a felony if committed by an adult within or outside the Commonwealth.

In short, barrier crimes are those that prevent employment in certain care-giving occupations.
