• All Volunteers must commit to at least 2 hours per week, at least every other week.
• Volunteers are expected to show up on time, and stay the entire time they commit to.

• Socializing birds is not always easy, or fun.
• Every volunteer takes a risk of being bitten and must sign a form releasing Feathered Family from liability.
• Volunteers often are needed to do things that involve no interaction with birds, such as building toys.
• Volunteers who work outreach must be able to present well to the public.
• Volunteers who do transport must show proof of drivers license and insurance.
• Volunteers who have birds at home must show current health testing for birds.
• Those involved in the volunteer to adopt program will be evaluated at the end of each shift.
• Volunteers may also be asked to assist with administrative work.
