To receive a complimentary registration for the ACL Event, it's crucial to note that a minimum of 10 hours of volunteer work at the event is mandatory. These hours can be divided across several shifts on different days or completed in a single shift. Failure to meet the volunteer commitment will result in being charged the in-person conference fee.
