Executive Positions
"But
I'm Too Busy"
You can volunteer whatever amount of time you have to give. The average
time commitment of a community executive position is 6 to 8 hours per
month. Many of the volunteer roles require less time. The choice is yours!
"But
I Don't Have the Knowledge or Expertise"
Anyone is a potential volunteer: homemaker, worker, teenager, older adult,
professional. People with all levels of ability from any background are
our volunteers. This means YOU! Through resource material, workshops,
conferences and personal contact you will gain the knowledge and expertise
to grow as a volunteer.
