Our volunteer application procedure will match your skills, interests and availability with the needs of our volunteer opportunities. Here's how it works:

1. Check out the website www.hbspca.com or our Volunteer Openings List at the shelter for current opportunities. If one sounds right for you, pick up an application package from the shelter.
2. Return the completed forms in a sealed envelope along with a letter that identifies the position to which you are applying and your skills and experience. Please write 'Volunteer Application' on the outside of the envelope.
3. Apply for a police record check (you will get a form at your interview). The cost is $15 with the letter you will get from us.
4. Participate in orientation and training sessions specific to your volunteer role.
5. Meet your team leader and sign up for your volunteer shifts
6. Arrange for photo date at shelter for your new ID badge.
7. Start your new, fulfilling opportunity to make a huge difference in your community.
8. Receive ongoing feedback and a 6 month review.
9. Make an enormous difference in the lives of others.
