Become a CAPP Volunteer

OAPA needs members with a variety of skills and experience to serve on upcoming CAPP projects. Volunteers will be selected based on the expertise required to address each community’s needs. CAPP teams typically have 4-6 planning volunteers, including an assigned leader who will be responsible for assembling the team, organizing the work, and coordinating with the host/client community. To be considered, interested candidates must complete the Volunteer Form and submit a resume.

Each CAPP project will generally take a few months to organize and complete. Volunteer team members should expect to spend 20-40 hours with the team preparing for and actively participating in a CAPP project. CAPP volunteers agree to offer their time and expertise pro bono and OAPA or the client community will cover travel and other incidental expenses.
