Volunteer
Our volunteers are strong, reliable, and dedicated to furthering the Shelter Association's mission of
"Ending Homelessness One Person at a Time".
Our volunteers contribute at least two shifts per month working alongside shelter staff.
Prior to volunteering, applicants complete on-line trainings, in-person orientation, and job-shadowing.
