Orange County is seeking volunteers for the eighth annual Project Connect event, coming up next month.
Project Connect is an annual event for Orange County residents who are at risk of homelessness, to connect them with organizations that provide essential services ranging from health care to housing and job resources.
Organizers are looking for volunteers to greet guests, guide them through the event, and help set up and break down at the beginning and the end of the day.
Jamie Rohe of the Orange County Partnership to End Homelessness joined WCHL’s Aaron Keck to talk about the event – and the larger issues of housing and homelessness in Orange County.
“Project Connect” will run from 9 am to 3 pm at the Hargraves Community Center on Thursday, October 9. If you’d like to volunteer, visit ProjectConnectOrange.org.
