■ Volunteer Forms MUST be submitted -- including a Background Report Form **

■ Most programs observe an age restriction, preferably adults who are 18 or older. There may be some flexibility on an individual basis if Applicant is 17 or younger, but this must be discussed with the Program Director. (Mission Waco will try to honor court-ordered requests from minors).

■ Once you begin volunteering, please do not invite your friends to “tag” along with you if they are not authorized. Like you, they must attend an orientation first. Out of respect to our staff and current volunteers, it is only right that anyone interested in volunteering should comply to our guidelines.

■ If you volunteered with Mission Waco program(s) in the past and wish to return, we may first need to update our records and also conduct a current Background Report.

** Background Reports are required on all individuals, including members of organizations. (Processing fee $5).

If 17 or younger, Parental/Guardian consent & signature is also required. An email consent is also accepted.
