Dress Guidelines for Volunteers ~ MCI and NCC Concord

The following guidelines should be followed for volunteers at MCI or NCC Concord:


1. Clothing should fit loosely—no spandex or clinging or tight-fitting knits.

    Female visitors must wear a bra.
2. No jeans, sweatpants, shorts, or stirrup pants are to be worn.
3. No elasticized waistbands unless tightly stitched. If you could
    possibly squeeze some item in the waistband, it won’t be allowed.
4. Wear shoes that are safe, comfortable, and functional for the program
    you are participating in. No open-toed shoes/sandals. Socks or stockings
    must be worn.
5. No jewelry is allowed with the exception of a wedding band.
6. No short skirts, dresses, or skorts (culottes). These dress items can
    be no shorter than 2” above the knee.
7. No dresses or skirts with slits more than 3” above the knee.

    [Think twice before wearing an item with any slits above the knee!]
8. No wrap-around skirts.
9. No tank tops, see-through tops, low-cut tops, casual T-shirts, or
    sweatshirts bearing logos.
10. Men must wear a shirt with a collar.
11. No fatigue or camouflage clothing or cargo pants.

Volunteers should wear attire that reflects professionalism and common
sense. If clothing is appropriate for a nightclub or the beach, you
should question its appropriateness for the institutional workplace.
