A special note to Hospice volunteer coordinators:
2-1-1 Information and Referral does not list individual hospice opportunities, because we reserve the newspaper space for nonprofit and government agencies. Space permitting, 2-1-1 will list a general call for hospice volunteers every couple of months. When potential volunteers contact 2-1-1 for hospice volunteering, information will be provided about a variety of hospices. If your hospice wishes to be included please contact the volunteer coordinator. Hospices are encouraged to list volunteer opportunities online and in our printed volunteer lists.
