Monitoring the group chat and queueing the group's questions for Maria
Sending resources and links to members inside the chat as needed
Taking notes and copying down client contact information for Maria as needed

Ideally, we would like a commitment of 4-6 groups, and we do understand that many of or volunteer assistants will be on call for their own birth work. In the event that you need to cancel, we will cover your duties for you!
Nice to have: Spanish language proficiency as we are hoping to launch our Spanish group in the fall!
