Not always the most glamorous jobs, but every bit of effort helps. There are several ways you can volunteer, either as an individual, or with a group. We match the interests, skills and talents of our volunteers with the needs of the agency and the clients we serve. If you have a skill set that doesn’t fall into one of the these areas please don’t let that stop you, we will work with you to find an opportunity that is the right fit for you.
