Almost Home Agency Outreach Volunteers (AOV) are skilled volunteers trained to speak with local agencies, professionals, schools, and individuals about Almost Home’s mission and vision. AOVs will work closely with the Volunteer Coordinator, Director of Programs, and Programming Department to expand the agency’s outreach goals by following a coordinated outreach procedure designed to reach potential clients, volunteers, and donors.
