Attendance by non-members

Members of the JDA are welcome to bring any Deaf friends/relatives to JDA events and activities (at the community centre or outside), regardless of their faith.

FOR SECURITY REASONS, NON-MEMBERS MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A PAID-UP JDA MEMBER.

Exceptions:

If an event or activity is open to members only, it will be stated in the JDA Magazine. Otherwise, it should be assumed that non-members are welcome to join in, accompanied by a member.  Alternatively, non-members can notify the JDA of their interest to attend an event prior to the event.

JDA reserves the right to refuse anybody not behaving in an acceptable manner.

Anybody wishing to discuss this policy should do so with the Community Centre Manager or Executive Director.
