FAQ’s for Volunteers
What is the time commitment?
Volunteers give one or two hours per week, for at least one semester. Many volunteers choose to work more hours.
When are volunteers needed?
All opportunities occur before, during or after the school day (between 7:30 am and 4:00 pm, Monday through Friday, during the school year).
Who are the students?
Our public schools have a very diverse student body. Students served by CSV have requested help or have been referred by their teacher.
Can I help if I’ve never worked in a school?
Yes! You do not have to have prior experience as a tutor or teacher. We will work to match your talents with a need in the schools.
What about training?
Training begins as soon as you attend one of the informational orientation sessions. Ongoing support continues via training events throughout the year. Some special projects have monthly trainings as well.
When are the orientations?
