Membership Requirements

Submitted by Occupy LA Wellness on Sat, 02/11/2012 - 5:06pm

Occupy LA Wellness is staffed entirely by volunteers and supplied by donations.
Medical and/or activist experience is very helpful but not required.
Subject to scheduling, we can train and legally certify volunteers in CPR and 1st aid.
Those without certification can be very helpful as runners, organizers, and outreach partners.
Those who wish to participate in directly providing services must demonstrate that they have obtained the knowledge and skill set to do so. Members must never misrepresent themselves and their skill set while providing services.
Members must be aware that by committing to be present at actions and by providing services to people who are often times in crisis, that there is an inherent level of risk to our work. Members must commit to educating themselves on how to be safe and keep others around them safe.
