The Regional Center for Volunteerism-HandsOn Sacramento

The Intake/Registration Team Volunteers will be trained to welcome & register our Guests: temp and symptom screening, collect contact information, take picture and help monitor inside & outside areas. The Team assists at each of the different Host Churches in Citrus Heights; a different church each week, Mon- Fri, for 5 weeks. All within a 3 mile radius.

We are a group of faith communities in Citrus Heights who provide respite and warmth for men & women who are experiencing homelessness in our area during the cold months of winter. This year we plan to operate 5 weeks- Monday January 4, 2021 through Friday February 5, 2021. Additional weeks could be added if additional Host locations volunteer.

All required health and safety practices will be implemented and enforced at all locations for all guests and volunteers. This includes temperature and symptom screening, masks, collecting contact tracing information, social distancing, cleaning and sanitizing procedures for all areas.

Each day our guests will be invited to arrive between 10 am – 2 pm at the Host site for that week. At the Host site- after a brief registration process and review of behavior guidelines- guests will be offered a hot meal, hot beverages, snacks plus a meal to-go. Guests will have access to different service providers from Sacramento Self Help Housing, CH Animal Control, the Citrus Heights Homeless Navigator, health care workers, haircuts, clothing, hygiene products, charging station for electronic items etc.

Guests will be able to rest and warm up, access services, eat, use the restrooms, in a safe dry environment.

Guests are offered a to-go meal as they depart.
