In addition, all volunteers must go through a screening process to determine suitability for tasks which are available. Potential volunteers fill out applications which are reviewed, and often an interview is conducted. All volunteers must attend an orientation, which is usually held twice a year. In addition, depending on the assigned job, more extensive training may be required. Depending on a volunteer's level of experience, jobs range from clerical to greeting and escorting visitors, to socializing and grooming animals.
Every service performed by a volunteer is essential to the success of our programs.
