Use your phone etiquette and customer service training to help clients in a family assistance program at the state DES office at 316 West Ft. Lowell. Volunteers need knowledge of accurate filing, alphabetizing, the ability to follow written and oral instructions, and skills to work a multi-line switchboard.
In an eight hour day, paperwork and filing use about 50% of time, sorting paperwork and files use 20%, and phones use 50%.
Volunteers are needed for full or half days, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The DES Volunteer Program is administered by the Volunteer Center of Southern Arizona.
Orientation and interview at the Volunteer Center of Southern Arizona is required. Call 881-3300, ext. 112 for an appointment. Volunteers must also complete HIPAA Level 1 Training (via computer). This opportunity is sponsored by: DES Volunteer Services

I volunteered with DES in 2007, (will be doing volunteer one more time in 2008). If you are in the middle of job hunting like me or just want something fulfilling to do besides watching t.v., then DES and volunteering help by giving you the experience and if it is a change of careers it really is impressive on a resume. DES helps so many, (I was on food stamps once), why not help DES by volunteering?!?
