Rescue Transport Network
ORGANIZATION: Wildlife Center of the North Coast
Please visit the new page to apply.
Because of our extensive service area - from Newport, OR to Washington’s Long Beach Peninsula - we rely on a network of volunteers to help transport patients needing our help. Volunteers for this assignment are "on-call," and so there is no minimum time commitment. Transport volunteers that are located nearest the animal in need are contacted when we are alerted of wildlife in need assistance.
Volunteering During COVID-19: We have taken steps to minimize the health risk to our staff and volunteers such as limiting outside visitors, wearing face coverings, vaccinating staff members, as well as increased sanitation protocols. View our website for more details.
