Liability and Permission form must also be signed by a legal guardian.
These forms will be provided by the Volunteer Coordinator during your
initial meeting.
An appointment with the
Volunteer Coordinator will be scheduled to discuss volunteer
opportunities, available workshops, your interests, and the policies of
The SPCA Volunteer Program. In addition, we will establish your weekly
volunteer shift.
