General Orientation - The First step to becoming a volunteer!

"Thank you for your interest in becoming a Paws and Claws Humane Society volunteer.

**************************************************************************************

Classes will resume in July. Please watch the pages for new classes to be added.

**************************************************************************************

The first step to becoming a volunteer is to attend a general orientation session.

Below are the links to any scheduled general orientation sessions.

Minimum age for volunteering at PCHS is 12 years old. All volunteers 12 through 17 must be accompanied at the orientation session by a parent or legal guardian. Volunteers aged 16 and 17 may train and volunteer without a parent present, but the parent still must attend the orientation session with the volunteer. Volunteers aged 12 through 15 must be accompanied at all times by a parent or guardian while volunteering.

Please click the link below and register if you are interested in attending any of the orientation sessions.
