I understand that neither the host organization nor
CO.STARTERS guarantees that I will be successful in my venture. Furthermore, the benefits gained from participating in
CO.STARTERS are a result of time, energy, and dedication to the program, and thus are not based solely on the completion of the coursework.
I further understand and authorize
CO.STARTERS to provide applicable information to the assigned management counselor(s). I understand that any information released is to be held in strict confidence by him/her.
No person will be excluded from participation in or otherwise subjected to discrimination in regard to services, programs, and employment provided by the host organization and
CO.STARTERS based on race, sex, color, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, age, religion, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law or ordinance.
I understand that the facilitators of the host organization and
CO.STARTERS rely upon the active participation and assistance of local volunteers in order to effectively operate the program. I further understand that
CO.STARTERS is most effective when participants are willing to freely share experiences and advice with one another during the course of the program.
In order to encourage these vital contributions, as well as those of program staff and facilitators, I hereby release, discharge, and hold harmless the host organization,
CO.STARTERS, program staff, facilitators, volunteers, and fellow participants from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action that I may hereafter have based upon the advice provided during the program and I understand that I am entirely responsible for the results of the decisions I make involving my venture during and as the result of my participation in
CO.STARTERS.
I do hereby give permission to the host organization and
CO.STARTERS, its agents, and others working under its authority, full and free use of video/photographs containing my image/likeness. I understand these images may be used for promotional, news, research, and/or educational purposes.
I hereby release, discharge, and hold harmless
CO.STARTERS and its agents from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action that I may hereafter have by reason of anything contained in the photographs or video.
I do further certify that I am either of legal age, or possess full legal capacity to execute the foregoing authorization and release.
