We are very excited to bring forward a new program (Friends and Family Volunteer Program) that will allow those friends and family members (must be 18 years old) to participate as volunteers in a variety of areas and assignments. Please forward the attached information and application to any of your friends and family that might be interested in volunteering as Disaster Service Workers. Although, we hope to create a robust list of volunteers moving forward for future disasters, our immediate need is for COVID 19 Assistance in many different areas including upcoming COVID 19 Vaccine Clinic logistics. As you can imagine, Public Health has been stretched thin and with mass vaccination clinics beginning to be scheduled, there is a need for many volunteers to assist. The Job Action Sheet for this volunteer opportunity is attached along with the program flyer that describes the process to become a Disaster Service Worker volunteer and the program application. Applications should be submitted to Volunteers@buttecounty.net. Thank you all in advance for sharing this opportunity with your friends and family members!
