What volunteers do
Volunteers support many programs and services. Tasks depend on:

We work with you to find a role that fits your skills and supports our community.
Details
Before you apply

Onboarding and requirements
Onboarding is a multi-step process and includes:
- Paperwork including an agreement and oath of confidentiality
- County Compliance and HIPAA trainings (additional trainings may be required too, depending upon the placement)
- In most cases a Livescan (DOJ and FBI background check) will be required but will be provided at no charge to the volunteer. Clearance must be obtained before a placement can be made.
