Description

We are looking for individuals willing to assist in our non-traditional shelter operations as needed.  Non-traditional shelters may be warming stations/shelters, cooling stations/shelter, and Safer Places (State of Alabama designated sites for severe weather).  Interested volunteers would work under a shelter manager and will assist with any needs that may arise (set up, registration, food service, site supervision, volunteer coordination, etc).   Hours would be flexible and would likely include overnight shifts.

Shelter occupants would include unhoused individuals, persons without adequate heating/air conditioning, persons medically and other vulnerable populations.

Participants would need their own transportation, a valid driver'ss license, and potentially pass a background check as the need involves serving vulnerable populations (including children) and multiple sites in Mobile County and may include some virtual activities.
