These 45 minute courses are primarily scheduled during the day but can be scheduled on a weeknight. The CVYS Department is always looking for volunteers to help out with projects. SOS Volunteers help with once and done projects such as picnics and bulk mailings.
Volunteers receive information on types of projects, dates, and times, and can sign up as they wish.
Animal Assisted Therapy Volunteers visit nursing homes and other community agencies along with their pets. Animal Assisted Therapy involves the interactions of pets and residents with guidance from the volunteer. Together, the volunteer and the pet can really help brighten a resident's day. All human volunteers must attend a Caring Friends Workshop and present a current record of the animal's shots. A photo of the animal will also be kept on file.
