    Seeking Volunteers to Support Our Military Members/Families! - Anywhere in Vermont

    Your local American Red Cross office is seeking volunteers to assist with casework that supports military members/families’ needs when faced with an emergency. Are you a good listener and comfortable communicating over the phone? This could be a great way for you to give back to your community in a meaningful way. Here is what you could do as a Service To The Armed Forces Caseworker:

    • Maintain strict confidentiality of any case notes, names and other personal information
    • Understand and apply Service to Armed Forces (SAF) policies, procedures and protocols related to Red Cross client services
    • Support the follow up process to include making follow-up calls to military members and/or families to determine if their needs are met
    • Acquire a working knowledge of local, state and federal resources aiding military members, families and veterans

    In addition to being a good listener who is comfortable with communicating over the phone we are seeking volunteers that have computer skills and can maintain professionalism. This role can provide you with professional casework experience with a highly respected organization. If you would like to join the team, please sign up at redcross.org/volunteer.

    Not the role for you? Check out other available opportunities at redcross.org/volunteer.

    The American Red Cross aspires to be an organization fully committed to diversity and inclusion by creating and maintaining a diverse, high-performing workforce of employees and volunteers who reflect all communities we serve.

    Our need for volunteers is constant and our guidelines reflect the latest CDC safety recommendations and follow the national and local government laws. COVID-19 vaccination is strongly encouraged and is required for in-person volunteer roles.
