Talk:Group Volunteering Policy

We need a better procedure to get groups started. Outlining steps to get started, and responsibilities of groups and group leaders needed.

• initial contact through phone call or email
• Staff take on contacting the group outlining the process, and what we need out of groups,
• emphasize that we want groups to be able to come, but also need to get our work done

responsibilities of the group:

• schedule your group in advance to secure the spot
• keep numbers the same, don't switch group members around
• have a list of names of members of group for easy data entry after every shift
• keep track of hours, if someone misses shifts, arrange for them to make up the time if they all are scheduled in the same class
• be on time
• cancel as soon as you know
• breaks are fine, but don't abuse
• ratio of kids vs adults is mandatory

responsibilities of Free Geek

• provide work space
• group contact will communicate with groups regularly through their volunteer time at FG
• make sure they get work that's appropriate and fun
