Requirements and Restrictions

Vaccinations

As HopeWorks is a Community Mental Health Center, all employees and volunteers are required to be vaccinated for HopeWorks to remain in compliance with the federal mandate for agencies that are healthcare settings receiving Medicare and Medicaid funding. In addition, all volunteers must maintain social distancing protocols and wear masks while on our campus.

Age
We welcome volunteers 18+ in the Day Shelter during operating hours. Outside operating hours or at other sites, we welcome volunteers ages 12+. Children ages 12-17 must be accompanied by an adult.

Time Commitment
Volunteers can sign up for one – or one every week! – 2-hour shift at the Shelter, for example. We only ask that volunteers stay for the full length of their shift.
