Why can't I acess certain parts of the web site?

We are asking people to apply for different volunteer roles within KGI each of which comes with certain access privileges on the KGI website. These roles are organizer, mentor, and partner.  You can read more about them here.  In brief, organizers are able to start "pods" and "groups", mentors can create "blogs" and "recipes", and partners can create "partner profiles" and blog about their work. It is possible for a member to apply for more than one role to have access to other parts of the website.  We have set things up this way to encourage members to think about the role or roles they want to play in KGI and to encourage them produce the web content that they are best qualified to create.
