Volunteer Program

The City of Sacramento welcomes volunteers to help provide services and programs to its citizens. The City is committed to maintaining a close relationship between the community volunteers and the City government. The volunteer program provides a broad source of expertise, talent, and manpower for City programs as well as an avenue for citizens to participate in their local government. The citizens also benefit by gaining a greater understanding and appreciation for their local government while strengthening the community's bond.

Volunteers provide assistance with animal care, gardening, tours, arts and crafts, child development, special events and much more. Some departments can utilize volunteers as young as 12, while others require the volunteer to be at least 18. To learn more about how you can help, please use the links to the left, or contact:
