Hunger, food insecurity, and social isolation are realities everywhere, but they are especially apparent in the Northeast Kingdom and Washington County of Vermont. Lack of access to resources and information further complicates life for many. As everyday living becomes less and less affordable, more people are forced to live on a shoestring budget.

Volunteers at organizations like Neighbors in Action are critical to help community members in need. We hope this volunteer guidance will provide the information necessary for every volunteer to be successful in their important role of helping others.
