The services and programs volunteers provide are an invaluable support that complements the work of our staff. Our volunteers are a diverse group who range in age from 16 to 96 and come from all walks of life. Volunteers choose to share skills, abilities, experience and talent to benefit their communities. Through service, they learn new skills, make new friends, explore career options, network and remain actively engaged in the community during the golden years of retirement.

Information and Customer Service

Commitment: A typical volunteer must commit to a consistent weekly shift of two to four hours, for a minimum one year.
