Access Volunteer Orientations
Access offers Volunteer Orientations for all new volunteers and those considering serving in this ministry. If you have never volunteered with Access or have only served a few times, this is a great workshop for you to consider. At the orientation, attendees learn about our programs, expectations, and policies. It is a chance to ask questions and get familiar with the ministry. All orientations and trainings are held on Monday evenings, 7:00-8:30 pm, unless otherwise noted.
