Code Consent

Being a conservative environment, we are required to carry an extremely conservative dress code. Please read the dress code below to its entirety and sign at the bottom for consent to follow these guidelines. Unfortunately, we have had to ask observers to leave in the past when out of dress code.

  • No scrubs
  • Name tag must be visible at all times (hair or jacket not covering nametag)
  • Professional, ironed, appropriate length pants.
  • Pants must be of a dress pant type: no denim/jeans, pants should not fit snugly to legs or backside so no leggings, tights or pants that are snug anywhere from waist to ankle. No cargo pants or shorts. Capris or crops are acceptable as long as they are loose and not snugly fitted anywhere from waist to leg.
  • Males must wear shirt tucked in with belt.
  • Jacket should be professional and no hoodies. Office and aide staff that work with clients and members: solid black
