Volunteer Opportunities
In order to help expedite the process of finding volunteer placements, a list of agencies has been compiled. The information below was provided by current or past students of the Introduction to Social Work & Social Welfare class or Generalist Practice with Individuals class. As a reminder, the volunteer work with Practice with Individuals requires working one on one with a person 18 years of age or older. The list will continue to be updated as new agencies are suggested or current information changes.
