Please read and commit/agree to each of the following:
*
I commit to attending the BEACH Kick-Off, client meetings with my team, and a debrief session with BEACH staff.
I agree and understand that I will be expected to spend approximately two to five hours prior to serving clients in each clinic communicating with clients, researching topics, and communicating with my lawyer mentor about upcoming client sessions. I also agree to submit a report summarizing my experience or complete a post-clinic survey at the end of the term.
*
Yes
I understand that 1) student volunteers will receive training on conducting client interviews, and must receive such training before interacting with clients. 2) students may be asked to obtain and review client-supplied materials in advance, conduct client intake interviews, and perform preliminary research re issues presented. 3) The level of participation in counseling sessions is expected to vary according to year (1L, 2L, etc.) and individual skill level.
*
Yes
I understand that I will be a part of a team of law and business students who will be supervised by a practicing attorney and business expert. I also understand that for some clients I will serve as the primary point person (main client contact), and for others I will be a supporting team member. I agree to work collaboratively and fulfill my role whether or not I am the point person and to keep all communications relating to the client confidential.

Yes
By submitting this form, I agree to volunteer, but I understand that I may or may not be called upon to do so, and that Ciocca Center is under no obligation to accept my offer to volunteer.
