Be a superhero of homelessness! Survey volunteers are essential in this short-term opportunity!
ORGANIZATION: ANOKA COUNTY RSVP
Please visit the new page to apply.
Volunteers are critical in participating in HUD's annual Point-In-Time Count, which communities are asked to count the number of people experiencing homelessness in their area. Volunteers are present at a variety of locations throughout Anoka County, allowing for more opportunities to meet with people experiencing homelessness, to complete surveys. Indoor locations tend to have one volunteer per shift, while outdoor locations will have teams of two people. Volunteers would be comfortable approaching community members to invite them to participate in the survey. Training will be held in two locations on Wednesday January 9th from 1-2:30 PM at St. Tim's Church in Blaine OR January 17th from 2:00-3:30 PM Anoka County Government Center, 5th Floor Room 552.

Volunteers can also sign up for their preferred shift time of two hours (Indoor: Libraries, food shelves, community meal sites and 24 hour gas stations), or (outdoor locations: bus stops at Northtown and Downtown Anoka). Volunteers may sign up in teams of two for indoor locations, but would need to indicate the other team member in the comments section, when signing up.
