Once site coordinators are prepared to develop a site, the site will need to be registered. To receive a link to the form for registration, contact CWJC at cwjc@wmu.org
When a registered site moves through the development stage (we recommend approximately two years for this) and is prepared to serve participants and recruit volunteers, the site will need to certify.
