Are you able to attend a 90 minute in-person group onboarding session? Please note that we are prioritizing in-person onboarding at the free store at this time, as most volunteer roles require being in-person at the store. There are also workgroups for folks who cannot engage in-person. Masks are required at all times and will be provided if needed.
