Volunteers participate in many ways at CCI. You are asked to attend a Volunteer Orientation and discover the many avenues open to you as a member of our volunteer team. Volunteers must be 14 years of age and commit to a minimum of 3 months of service. All potential volunteers are invited to attend a no obligation, Volunteer Orientation – held every other month on the CCI campus in Santa Rosa.
