Volunteering

If you are interested in making a real difference – having a positive impact on your community and enhancing the quality of life for senior citizens and/or their caregivers, then WE NEED YOU.

As a volunteer with Central Alabama Aging Consortium (CAAC), you can expect a dynamic and fulfilling day-to-day experience. Your primary responsibilities will include engaging with clients, assisting them with various activities, and providing support in community programs. Each day, you’ll work closely with a dedicated team, collaborating and addressing the needs of seniors and their families.

Your schedule will be flexible, with commitment required any day Monday to Friday.

Training will help you confidently navigate your role, and you’ll receive ongoing support as you immerse yourself in the vibrant culture of our organization. Embrace the opportunity to learn, grow, and make a difference every day!

Volunteers must pass a drug screening and background check.
