Volunteer Resources functions much like a Human Resources
department in its recruitment processes. Interested
community members are required to submit an application
with resume (optional) and two Reference Check forms.
Step 1:
Complete the
application form available on this page.
Step 2:
Mail or fax
the reference request form to two referees.
Step 3:
Mail or fax
completed application and (2) reference forms together
to Volunteer Resources.
Once a vacancy
becomes available you will be invited to an interview
to match your needs to the needs of the vacant service
requirements.
Prior to being
placed at Trillium, volunteers must attend an Orientation
Session to help prepare you for your role. Volunteers
must complete Employee Health Safety and Wellness testing
and be cleared for volunteer placement. Finally, volunteers
will complete service-specific training with a Volunteer
Service Leader or designated staff. This includes a
tour of key areas, introduction to staff, and a thorough
review of your service description and duties. The process
takes about one month. All volunteers, other than summer
student volunteers, and 40 hour community service volunteers,
are expected to make a minimum 50 hour commitment.
