Veteran Volunteers in service for veterans in the VA System.

These areas are where the volunteer needs are continuous:

  1. Volunteer drivers, must be certified under DOT
  2. Friendly visitors
  3. Clerical, in many areas
  4. Mail Room
  5. Nursing Service
  6. Escort
  7. Discharge waiting room

If you are interested and have the time, you only need to volunteer four hours per month.

Both facilities in Connecticut have needs; these needs are also at the Community Care Units (CBOC) as well as Veterans Centers.

  2. Art Supplies
  3. Beverages and associated supplies
