Chairs and Hosts
Chair or Host a Meeting!
Common Peril seeks volunteers to chair online meetings and to act as hosts/facilitators for online meetings. Chairs and facilitators need to have internet access that supports both audio and video functioning using Zoom.
In order to chair, volunteers must have at least six months of sobriety. Prior experience with Zoom is helpful, but not necessary.
Hosts/facilitators should either have experience with Zoom or be willing to complete a few training videos on Zoom meetings. Being comfortable with Zoom or with digital technology is a plus, but not required.
