Assist the Orange County Probation Department by serving as a volunteer through the Volunteer in Probation (VIP) program.
The Volunteer Information Meeting is the first step to become a volunteer or intern with our agency. These meetings are about 2 hours long and are the first mandatory training requirement in the process to becoming a volunteer or college intern. Prospective applicants are given a presentation and training on volunteering and internships with Orange County Probation. They are also given an opportunity to ask questions about the program. Each participant will be given a VIP manual and all documents needed to apply for the VIP program at this meeting. In addition, you will hear from current volunteers on their experience as a VIP.
