To
become an RSVP volunteer, fill out the Volunteer
Registration Form and Areas of Volunteer
Interest form on this website,
print it out the forms and send them to us by mail or by
fax. You can also visit our office to get the forms or
contact us by phone, fax or e-mail to get forms sent to
you. A Volunteer Coordinator will contact you to discuss
your specific situation and interests. If you do not
already have volunteer station (place) chosen, we will
recommend alternatives. Once you have selected a
station, we will contact station staff who will contact
you about the details of your volunteering. Each station
has a responsibility to train you for your volunteer
work, to give you supervision and to limit your
volunteering to the tasks assigned unless there is prior
agreement with you and notification to our office.
Either station staff or you will report volunteer hours
to us monthly. We encourage volunteering at multiple
stations if you have multiple interests. You may add or
change volunteer station(s), but we do need to be
notified. We want to work with you and the station staff
if there are any problems.
We will provide orientation by phone or in person and
by mailed information. Mailed materials will include an RSVP
Volunteer Handbook and information on common senior
citizen safety concerns. Other information is contained
in the RSVP newsletter, update mailings and
presentations at senior special events. When applicable,
we ask you to share the information you receive with
other seniors and retired persons, both at your
volunteer station(s) and in your personal life. As a
volunteer and as a community member, we ask you to help
us with our role as an advocate for quality of life
issues affecting persons 55 and older. For further
information, contact us.
