How to change the date volunteers must have been oriented after for your organization

Use the following guide to change the date volunteers must have been oriented after in order to participate in events organized by your nonprofit organization.

When you create a new event in Volunteer.Legal that is organized by your organization (rather than a collaborative), you can specify if the event requires in-person orientations or not. If it does require in-person orientations, any volunteer attempting to sign up for your event will be asked if they have volunteered at an immigration workshop since a specific date. You can specify this date for each type of event your organization organizes. If the volunteer answers "no" to this question, they will be asked if they have participated in a immigration workshop orientation since the specific date. If they answer "no" to this question, they will be prompted to sign up for an orientation. If the specific date you choose is more than a year in the past, volunteers attempting to sign up for your event will be asked if they have participated in an immigration workshop "in the past 12 months".

The date Volunteer.Legal uses for "have you been oriented since..." questions is set individually by the user for each organization and each collaborative, and seperately for each type of event hosted by an organization / collaborative (currently: citizenship, daca, general screening).
