BE A PART OF THE CONNECTICUT VOLUNTEER TEAM
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) volunteers are the backbone of our work.
You decide on the number of hours you’d like to volunteer, the days of the week, and we will match you up to either a nearby physical location or a virtual space, depending on your preference. We will provide all of your training – for free.
If you already volunteer or work with a local nonprofit, we will train you to be able to offer additional help right within your existing volunteer space! For more information on the different types of volunteers we need, please click on the buttons below.
