Housing

Our usual group housing at CCNV will not be available this year. Therefore, participants are responsible for finding and paying for their own housing. We will do our best to help fundraise to help offset your costs of arranging your own housing. We will also attempt to match people together who are open to sharing housing with others in order to keep costs down. Please fill out the following to help us know what your needs are.

Where do you plan to stay? *

I live in the area so am all set

I am coming from out of the area, and have friends or family I can stay with

I am coming from out of the area, and will be staying in a hotel, motel, inn or AirBnB type place

Housing Shares

I live in the area and can host one or more participants

I will be staying in a hotel/motel/AirBnB and am open to sharing space with another participant who has been vaccinated

VIGIL SURVEY: Lets us know your input about how you'd like to see this year's vigil happen. There are a few scenarios for consideration. Please check the ONE that you most prefer. *

Vigiling as we always have - 9 am until 8 pm the first two days, and then a continual vigil throughout the night the following two days (keep in mind that we don't have access to the air conditioned Methodist building next door, but we will have 24 hr bathroom access at another building a 7 minute walk away)

Vigiling in shifts - a very small number of participants take short shifts together, so that the vigil happens all day. Participants would agree to cover a couple of hours per day, and would only be at the court during that time.

Vigiling in blocks - instead of having an all day presence, everyone gathers at the court for a couple of hour blocks, twice a day (for example: a vigil from 11 am to 1 pm to target the lunch crowd, then a second vigil from 4 pm to 6 pm to target the end-of-the-workday crowd.)

Health and Safety

We seek the following information so that if you have a medical emergency, we can give the paramedics a little more than, “he/she is a good abolitionist.” This information will be held in the strictest of confidence and will only be released to emergency medical personnel in the event that you keel over and need to be carted off. It will be destroyed after the Fast & Vigil concludes.

Also, if participants are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms, you may not attend the event in person for any reason.

Will you have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19 by June 29? (Meaning, 2 weeks have passed since your final dose) *

Yes

Maybe / Unsure

Will you be fasting? *

Undecided / Maybe

Do you have any health concerns we should be made aware of?

List any prescribed medications you are taking, any allergies, and any other medical information that a medical practitioner should know about you in an emergency situation.

What is your date of birth? *

YYYY
