When you arrive at the course location (you can find the information on how to find the room in the Location/Lodging tab on the Course-Event page where you completed your registration and downloaded the prereadings), there will be a table to check in. Please sign the Sign In sheet, and grab a manual and a name tag. A representative at H&W will be checking the Sign In sheet against the roster to make sure everyone is there so they can alert the admin team if anyone is missing. Please be sure to sign in! 

We invite you to include your name as well as your preferred gender pronouns on your name tag. 

Why Include Gender Pronouns on My Name Tag? 

At H&W courses, we strive to provide an inclusive and supportive learning environment to all participants. We invite participants to list the gender pronouns by which they prefer to be addressed on their name tags.  

Often, people make assumptions about someone's gender based on that person’s appearance or name. These assumptions aren’t always correct. Additionally, the act of making an assumption sends the message that people have to look a certain way to demonstrate their gender. Using someone’s correct personal pronouns is a way to respect them and create an inclusive environment, just as using a person’s name can be a way to respect them. We invite you to help foster an environment of mutual respect by listing your pronoun on your name tag and observing the preferred pronouns of others.
