Participation requires a computer, tablet or smart phone with camera, microphone and speakers. The link to connect will be sent to those who call 360-452-1511 with an email address by noon Tuesday, Sept. 1.
An in-person orientation is scheduled for 10-11 a.m. Friday, Sept. 4, at 829 E. Eighth St., Port Angeles. No registration is necessary, but all attendees must abide by health guidelines (wearing a mask and physical distancing.)
VHOCC continually monitors and follows COVID-19 guidelines from the CDC, State of Washington, and Clallam County. VHOCC continually monitors and follows county, state and federal guidelines, and volunteer activities have been adjusted according.
However, there is still a need for equipment delivery drivers and helpers in Sequim and Port Angeles; a VHOCC vehicle and training is provided.
There is also a need for front desk volunteers at the Port Angeles office to answer phones and respond to requests from the community (training is provided).
