Community Service Volunteer Application

The mission of Affirmations is to provide a welcoming space where people of all sexual orientations, gender identities & expressions, and cultures can find support and unconditional acceptance, and where they can learn, grow, socialize and feel safe. 

Community Service Volunteers (CSVs) are required by various courts to complete service hours. CSV responsibilities include facilities management, specifically, deep cleaning of community spaces. Additional tasks may be included by Affirmations' Staff and can be considered toward Community Service hours at the discretion of the Community Resource Coordinator (CRC). All prospective CSV’s must apply online. 

Any accepted CSV may participate in Affirmations’ General Volunteer Program only after the completion of community service hours. In so doing, the individual must abide by program requirements and training schedules thereafter. 




If these hours are not Court Mandated Hours, please enter NA and skip the next two sections.
