Service
“You know, there hasn’t been a single person I’ve met at CAP that I haven’t loved.”
—A CAP participant describing volunteers
Christian Appalachian Project volunteers serve in a variety of programs serving the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the people of Appalachia. Most CAP volunteers serve directly in the CAP-funded programs below. We also have volunteer positions with smaller partner agencies that are also working to assist and empower the people of Appalachia. While these volunteers do not serve in a CAP program, they live in a CAP volunteer house and receive CAP benefits. Typically, a volunteer will serve in one program for the duration of his or her volunteer time, though volunteers may also have an opportunity to serve in Disaster Relief or other programs for special events. When you join CAP, you’re not simply joining a particular program, you’re joining a mission, and each of the programs below work in concert with one another to create a stronger Appalachia.
