COMMUNITY HEALTH VOLUNTEERING
Program Overview
Worry Free Community emphasizes the involvement of volunteers at all levels of our programs and activities. We can achieve the mission of serving the community with the help of active participation of volunteers. Volunteers are an integral part of our team, and they can contribute their individual talents, skills, and knowledge in our efforts to tackle health disparities.
Volunteers help us to extend the outreach of our current programs, expand the range of WFC activities and enhance the outcome of these programs. We offer a variety of different opportunities for volunteers and these opportunities fall into 2 different Volunteer categories: Community Health Volunteers and Community Engagement Volunteers.
