Volunteers Make It Happen
Volunteers are the heart of 4-H. Over 400 volunteers make 4-H happen in
Marion County. We are in dire need of club leaders to start new clubs in the
rapidly growing areas of the county, for example, the Shores in the south east
and in south west Ocala off State Road 200.
Volunteer Application Process
Volunteers working with 4-H youth on an ongoing basis (3 or more times, or
overnight) must be screened and approved before they can begin to volunteer.
The screening process involves:
1. Completion of an
application form, either mailed or faxed to
us
2. Satisfactory reference check
3. Satisfactory national background check
4. Completion of interview and signed Behavior Expectation Form
Note: Volunteers are covered under the University of Floridas insurance if they
become injured while working on behalf of 4-H.
