Meet a First-Event Host

FIRST-EVENT SUPPORT

A JYC host replies within one business day.

Nathan Vaisbort and Daniel Ackerman own this queue. You will also receive an automatic email confirming that the request reached JYC.

Prefer not to walk in alone?

A real person can make the first ten minutes easier.

Tell us what would make arrival more comfortable. A JYC host can text you before the event, meet you near the entrance, and introduce you to two people. Share as much or as little as you choose.

Hosts are greeters and connectors—not mentors, counselors, or matchmakers. You remain in control of how much contact you want.

A human next step

Request a first-event host

This does not register you for an event. It asks JYC to make arrival easier.

Only share what JYC needs for this request. Submissions are stored privately in WordPress and emailed as a notification without the sensitive message text. Ask JYC to correct or delete your information at any time.
