Homeless Prevention Volunteer

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: South County Outreach

We are looking for energetic and reliable volunteers to work at South County Outreach. Job responsibilities include assisting with making calls to clients that have applied to the utility portal. This includes helping them enroll to the SoCal Customer Assistance Programs ("CAP"). This is a program that helps lower their utility bill. If they are not already enrolled then the volunteer would assist them in enrolling them online. The whole process takes about 5 minutes.

Our homeless prevention program helps residents of Orange County stay in their homes by providing financial assistance towards a household's rental arrears and overdue utilities, such as water, natural gas, and electricity. This is designed to prevent a sudden financial setback from becoming a long-term financil crisis.

If interested please complete the attached application and return to me.
