Volunteer Orientation Schedule Summer 2008 All new volunteers must participate in an orientation which focuses on the the refugee process, issues faced by newcomers, cultural differences and agency procedures. Since Journey’s End’s clientele is a most vulnerable population, any volunteer wishing to provide direct services must undergo a background check. Picture ID and 3 references (NOT family) are also required. Seating for each orientation is limited to 15; reservations are required to guarantee a space & materials. If you are interested in volunteering, please complete our volunteer application form Fall 2008 Orientation Schedule
When the orientation/background procedure is complete, each volunteer will be notified of their assignment and the staff contact in addition to the Volunteer Coordinator. Please be sure to indicate which one you would like to attend on the application form and MAIL it to PO BOX 885, Buffalo NY 14213. ALL orientations take place at Journey’s End offices – 184 Barton Street –upstairs. If all participants arrive in a timely fashion, the sessions start on time, then the orientations should take approximately two hours with Q & A (optional) to follow.
