Introduction
Welcome to the Orlando DC407 Community Group (A.K.A. DCG407) !
DC407 is built on the foundation of learning, sharing, collaboration, curiosity, and community. Our goal is to foster an inclusive, respectful, and fun environment for all, regardless of background, identity, or experience level.
We are committed to maintaining a safe and welcoming space for everyone. We value diversity and inclusion, striving to create a space where different perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences are recognized, respected, and celebrated.
Keeping it Magical
As the home of The Most Magical Hacks on Earth, we have a few guidelines to help ensure DC407 stays magical:
● Be Respectful – Treat everyone with kindness, dignity, and professionalism.
● Be Open – Encourage participation from all individuals, regardless of how different they may be from you. Diverse perspectives, experiences, and skills contribute to a richer and more innovative community.
● Be Curious – Share knowledge, ask questions, mentor others, and cultivate a culture of curiosity and growth.
● Be Constructive – Conduct discussions and debates with mutual respect and an open mind.
● Be Discreet – Do not share personal or sensitive information about others without explicit consent. Always request permission before taking photos or videos of others.
● Be a Good Guest – Adhere to all venue-specific policies and help to ensure our meeting spaces are as clean when we leave as they were when we arrived. Our hosts are kind enough to give us a place to meet and we want them to keep inviting us back.
Minors at Events
While we believe that learning and knowledge are for everyone, not all of our presentations will be suitable for kids. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Guardians are responsible for ensuring minors adhere to the Code of Conduct and remain in a safe and appropriate environment.
