PROGRAM PARTICIPATION

As the legal Parent or Guardian, I hereby consent to and authorize the Minor to act as a participant and volunteer in programs led by Achieve Miami, Inc. (“Achieve Miami”) as of the date I indicate my approval of this consent form. I agree and understand that the Minor must comply with the rules and regulations established from time to time by Achieve Miami and that failure to do so may result in the Minor’s immediate removal as a participant.

I am aware of the nature of the activities to be performed by the Minor as a participant. These activities may include but are not limited to the duties listed: participating in in-person meetings, Zoom lessons with Achieve Miami staff and Big Buddies (high school mentors), and participating in music courses. I specifically understand and acknowledge Achieve Miami’s Zoom practices. In general, the Zoom session will start in the main Zoom room, where an adult will always be present. In the Zoom breakout rooms, Achieve Miami will always have an Achieve Miami volunteer or staff member present, which may or may not be an adult, facilitating the activities. An Achieve Miami volunteer or staff, who is an adult, will also drop in and out of the Zoom rooms. I understand that, just like live activities, Achieve Miami cannot control the behavior of other participants, but I also understand that Achieve Miami has systems, policies, and training in place to maintain the integrity of the Zoom programming, which includes identifying inappropriate behavior or language on camera and in the chat. I agree that all activities are to be performed by the Minor at the Minor’s risk and I assume full responsibility for the same. On behalf of myself, the Minor, and our respective heirs and personal representatives, I agree to indemnify and hold Achieve Miami and all of its officers, employees, representatives and volunteers free and harmless from and against all claims, damages, losses, and expenses, including attorney fees, that the Minor may sustain while participating. I hereby release and discharge Achieve Miami and all of its officers, employees, representatives, and volunteers from any and all claims, demands, causes of action of any nature or cause, for any such injury or damage incurred or suffered by the Minor.

I have carefully read this Form, which is an agreement, waiver, and release, and I fully understand its contents. I am aware that this is a release of liability and a contract between Achieve Miami and myself and I sign it of my own free will.
