To continue to create quality programs and ensure a safe and welcoming 4-H community, there is a bit of a process when applying to become a volunteer.&nbsp; Here\u2019s a quick look at what you may expect during the application process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li> Apply to become an Enrolled Volunteer.&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/wsu.co1.qualtrics.com\/jfe\/form\/SV_79WHDXN8KJG5NS6\">Find the Online Volunteer Application Here<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When the application is received, Instructions for the online trainings will be emailed back to you. These take 1-2 hours and can be completed at your convenience.&nbsp; Please keep in mind that some projects, like Shooting Sports, may require additional volunteer trainings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While you are working on the online trainings, a request will be sent for your personal references to complete an online survey.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your club leader or the 4-H Coordinator will conduct an interview with you with only a handful of questions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Last but not least, a background check will be run on each applicant before final approval.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Once we have all of those steps completed you will be official!&nbsp; It may sound like a lot of work but it really goes by pretty fast, and it&#8217;s for a good cause!<\/p>\n\n\n<section  class=\"wsu-section wsu-spacing-after--none\"  >\r\n        \n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center  wsu-font-size--xmedium wp-block-heading\">Washington State University&nbsp;Extension<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Island County 4-H<br>406 North Main Street, Coupeville, Washington, 98239.<br>360-639-6064 |&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:island.4h@wsu.edu\">island.4h@wsu.edu<\/a><\/p>\n\n    <\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Resources for 4-H Volunteers This page holds a lot of resources that are unique to Club Leaders.\u00a0 If you don&#8217;t see the form you are looking for, you may want to check the members resource&amp;hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":107598,"parent":236,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_tec_requires_first_save":true,"_wsuwp_accessibility_report":null,"_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":0,"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_tribe_blocks_recurrence_rules":"","_tribe_blocks_recurrence_description":"","_tribe_blocks_recurrence_exclusions":"","_expiration_date":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[84],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/107425"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=107425"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/107425\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":111392,"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/107425\/revisions\/111392"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/236"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/107598"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=107425"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=107425"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=107425"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
