After you have selected one or more volunteer positions that interest you, call the Volunteer Services Department at
954.266.6814 to sign-up for a general volunteer orientation. One and a half hour-long orientations are provided twice a month to prospective volunteers. During these sessions, Humane Society of Broward County’s philosophies will be explained and different volunteer positions will be reviewed. At the end of the orientation, you will be asked to schedule your personal interview with the Director of Volunteer Services to answer any questions and to discuss your volunteer position and necessary training. During this interview, you will be required to complete an authorization form allowing HSBC to perform a multi-state criminal background check. We do require at least a six month commitment to our Volunteer Program.

If you are seeking to fulfill court ordered community service hours, and if you are at least 18 years old, you are not eligible for this program. Please call 954.266.6868 for more information.
