   • The PSW’s primary responsibility is to provide personal support to the Participant (referred to as the “Carrot”), ensuring their safety, comfort, and well-being during the workshop.
   • The PSW should encourage independence in the Participant they are supporting and assist personally as needed.
   • The PSW is not responsible for any administrative, facilitating, or operational duties related to the workshop.
   • The PSW must maintain a professional and respectful attitude towards the Participant and other participants in the workshop.
   • The PSW is expected to adhere to any confidentiality agreements regarding personal information shared during the workshop.
   • The PSW is not an employee or representative of Purple Carrots and is solely responsible for supporting the Participant in accordance with their individual needs.
   • The PSW is an independent contractor and not an employee of Purple Carrots. They will not represent Purple Carrots in any capacity and are not entitled to any benefits or compensation beyond the terms agreed upon with the Participant or their guardian.

   Purple Carrots can provide 1:1 support in workshops at an additional cost, if needed.
