Our volunteer application process consists of an online application, online liability waiver, and if required for some opportunities, a background check (if 18 years or older) and applicable training. The cost of the background check is $25.50. Once the online waiver and application process has been completed, our volunteer coordinator will reach out to you with next steps.
To get started, please complete an online waiver by choosing either an adult waiver or a parent consent for a minor. You will be redirected back to this page once complete. Please complete the online waiver prior to beginning the online application below.
