BUTTE COUNTY, Calif. – Butte County Public Health is seeking volunteers through the Disaster
Healthcare Volunteer program to assist with upcoming COVID-19 vaccination clinics.
The Disaster Healthcare Volunteer (DHV) program is a statewide system to identify volunteers
for deployment in disaster response and recovery activities. Healthcare providers with an
active license, public health professionals, members of a medical disaster response team in
California, and individuals without medical training can register at
www.healthcarevolunteers.ca.gov. Please ensure you choose the Butte County Unit during the
registration process.
Once applications are processed, Butte County Public Health will alert DHV members with a
request to volunteer. Volunteer positions will be open as soon as the end of this month and
