Volunteer Orientation - Only Two Sessions Left 

Thank you to everyone who attended our first Orientation session of the year this past week; it was so great getting to meet with some of our new, and returning, VITA volunteers!

We recommend that anyone who is volunteering with our program for the first time attend an Orientation session. These sessions will provide all the information you need to decide which of our many opportunities is the best fit for you!

Income Tax 101 Presentations

We have slides and materials available, but we are always looking for volunteers to help us deliver the presentations.
