Volunteer Orientation & Training Sign Up

Please use the form below to sign-up to attend.

Heads up, future volunteers! 

After you’ve completed our in-person Orientation & Training, there’s one more quick step! Our insurance requires that you also complete a short online training from Maddie’s Fund. You’ll receive the link in a welcome email from our Outreach Coordinator, Cameron Johnson. Keep an eye on your inbox—it’s the final step before you’re officially part of the QCAWC volunteer family! 

Please Note: We do not offer community service volunteer opportunities that are mandated through the court system. We do welcome students and individuals completing service hours through schools, clubs, and other organizations as part of service projects or educational requirements.

If you have any questions, you may email Cameron Johnson at: cameron@qcawc.org 

Group Volunteering

Whether it’s a boy/girl scout troop event, work outing for coworkers, or a group of students looking to enrich the lives of animals; we have a volunteer opportunity for you!

Once your group has gone though our brief orientation and tour of our Adoption & Education Center, we will help you find the right volunteer opportunity for your group!

We offer group volunteer training orientations for groups of 5-25 people.

Please contact QCAWC Community Outreach Coordinator or 309-787-6830 Option #3 Ext. 36 to schedule a group volunteer orientation.
