If you are over the age of 55, you can join the ranks of more than 150 RSVP members in Del Norte Counties who give their time at various local agencies to make a difference in their community. RSVP is part of Senior Corps, a network of national service programs under the umbrella of the Corporation for National and Community Service, which provides older Americans the opportunity to apply their life experience to meeting community needs.

RSVP provides referral services, supplemental volunteer insurance coverage, limited mileage reimbursement, and recognition. There is no fee to participate. We ask you to report your monthly service hours to our office.

"Senior volunteering, we know, yields a double benefit. Not only do communities and individuals benefit from the services provided by senior volunteers, but the volunteers themselves realize proven health benefits through social interaction, ongoing engagement, opportunities to contribute, and a sense of purpose and accomplishment."
