HELPING HANDS VOLUNTEERS MUST BE
EXPERIENCED ASP VOLUNTEERS OR MUST BE APPROVED PRIOR TO
REGISTRATION
BASED
ON CONSTRUCTION SKILLS AND HOME REPAIR EXPERIENCE. THIS PROGRAM
IS FOR
INDIVIDUAL ADULTS.
While
Helping
Hands
are welcome to request a specific state or county, we do ask for your flexibility and
understanding if
there is a greater need in another location. Thank you!
Work Crew Leader Role:
Guide a new/low skill group through their week with ASP and encourage them to
continue
serving in
future years. Answer any questions that a group may have throughout their week and
empower
the
youth volunteers to complete their project. (Construction skills required.)
HH’s will assist in coaching other adults within the group to effectively
lead a
work crew
and check in with staff. Please keep in mind that the adults from the group who are on
the trip
have the
ultimate authority with their youth and should be the primary point of contact for staff
unless
otherwise
discussed.
HH’s will foster the empowerment of youth while on the worksite, helping
assign
tasks,
teaching, overseeing safety, and problem solving.
As a new group mentor, HH's will also help provide guidance on any
overall ASP
programmatic elements (e.g., Evening Programming, acronyms, chores,
etc.)
If serving as a floating volunteer, HH's will communicate with staff daily in
order to
plan
deliveries and schedule needed site support.
There is NO CHARGE to
participate in
this program.
