Do you have a passion for helping our community to end homelessness? In partnership with the St Johns County Continuum of Care, we are committed to ending veteran homelessness by March of 2021. In support of this initiative, Care Connect is launching a new volunteer led service called the Homeless Advocate Program. The program will identify specific individuals who are experiencing homelessness and the items they need now while they are still homeless such as blankets, sleeping bags, tents, bicycles, socks, and shoes and then once they are housed, the items they need to make the house feel like home such as bedding, plates, utensils, cleaning supplies and more.
We are seeking Volunteer to gather items. Volunteers will get a list of specific items the homeless veteran needs and can use their personal, social and professional networks to get donations for these items and return them to the agency for delivery to the individual or family.
This position can be performed remotely by a person of any age. Access to email and phone required.
