    1. Sign Up (at least 5 days in advance):

    • Go to www.habitatect.org/volunteer 
    • Click the Volunteer UP Button at the top of the page
    • Log In or Register (if you are new to this system) and make sure to select UCONN as a group
    • (this is important or you will not see the team availability)
    • Return to the calendar to select the day and project that your group is volunteering for:
    • either Sat, October 30th in Willimantic, or Sat Nov 6th project 4 in Norwich
    • This will take you to a screen with information and you can choose an e-mail reminder, and then click "sign up"
    • You should see a page that says "sign up confirmation". If you do not see "sign up confirmation", fix the error indicated and click "sign up" again.

    2. Watch Safety Video:

    There is a short safety video that all new volunteers need to watch before volunteering on site. The video can be
    watched online at https://www.habitatect.org/volunteer/volunteer-training-resources/ 

    3. Waiver: 

    Each volunteer will need to agree to the digital e-waiver when logging into Volunteer UP. If the system didn’t
    prompt you to do so, please email us and let us know.
