WHAT IS RSVP?
  RSVP is the Retired Senior Volunteer Program. It is part of the Corporation for National and Community Service  and is sponsored locally by Sacramento County Department of Human Assistance  and the Friends of RSVP. More than 600 seniors in Sacramento County are active volunteers in this program, but WE NEED MORE!

WHO CAN VOLUNTEER?

Anyone willing to share their lifetime of experience is eligible.

WHAT KINDS OF VOLUNTEER WORK IS DONE?
  Volunteers may choose from a wide variety of activities including tutoring school children or adults; serving as docents for cultural events, nature centers or museums; providing support services at health centers; giving clerical support or consultative services; making friendly visits to the isolated elderly; preparing, serving or distributing food, to name just a few.

WHERE DO VOLUNTEERS WORK?
  Volunteers work in a variety of community settings such as schools, senior centers, TV/Radio stations, libraries, hospitals, nature centers, sheriff’s service stations, food distribution centers, etc. In Sacramento County there are 160 different public and nonprofit agencies enrolled with RSVP from which a volunteer may choose an assignment.

WHAT BENEFITS ARE PROVIDED BY RSVP?
  All RSVP volunteers are covered by supplemental ACCIDENT, PERSONAL AND AUTOMOBILE LIABILITY INSURANCE while traveling directly to and from, and participating in volunteer activities. A bimonthly newsletter, the SPOTLIGHT, keeps volunteers informed of current volunteer opportunities. An exciting annual Recognition Event honors all RSVP volunteers.
