How much time must I commit to be involved?
You can commit to whatever amount of time you would like to volunteer, according to your schedule. Initially, there is an eight hour Pet Partners® Handler Training Course to attend (see the ‘Events’ box on homepage for upcoming dates). After attending the course, sign-up for the Team Evaluation (takes 30-45 minutes). The team is allowed as many attempts as they wish to pass the evaluation.
Successful completion of the Team Evaluation is required before being able to volunteer at one of TAU’s site-assessed facilities. After that, teams may volunteer for an hour at a day as often as several times a week, as little as once a month, or for special events only, as their individual time permits.
