Release-Facilitators

Sweet Readers, Inc. (”The Charity”) is a 501(c)3 tax exempt public charity, founded in 2011 and based in Manhattan. Our mission is to empower young people through training, transformative programs and communities of support to revitalize adults living with Alzheimer’s and related disorders (AD) and become catalysts for excellence in eldercare. During our programs, young people are challenged to utilize science, human engagement and the arts to discover the person behind the disease and meaningfully connect.

The Sweet Readers School Programs, including multigenerational, training and community engagement sessions (the “Programs”), in partnership between The Charity, a middle school (the “School”) and in some cases a museum (the “Partners”) will be held at the School, a local eldercare center or museum with orientation, some community events and science training being held at a common venue bringing together multiple school communities. Thank you for helping to Facilitate the Programs!

I acknowledge and agree:

1. I am in good health to undertake the normal range of activities contemplated by the Program and will not attend any sessions if I am feeling ill or have a fever or any communicable diseases or viruses. I also acknowledge that as a condition of participating in the Program, I possess comprehensive medical/health insurance which will be in effect throughout my participation in the Program; and
2. As a Facilitator, I remain fully subject to the Partner’s rules and regulations concerning my conduct, including the right of either of the Partners to suspend, limit or terminate my participation in the Program for any reason either of the Partners deem proper.
3. As part of my participation in the Program, I may be asked to fill out evaluations to support the Charity’s ongoing efforts to improve the quality of their programming. These evaluations may also become part of a larger study of the impact of the Programs on participants. I agree to answer the questions to the best of my knowledge and the Charity agrees not to publish my last name in connection with the Program without my prior written consent.

I hereby irrevocably consent to and authorize the Charity to use any photographs, audio and/or videos of me and/or any works (artworks, poetry, etc.) I may have helped create during the course of the Program in order to promote and publicize the Charity, its mission and its programs, in any medium.
