Skilled Craft or Trade, Healthcare/Medical, Interpersonal

Causes:

Disaster Relief, Poverty, Veterans & Military Families

The support volunteer positions are designed to provide individuals within the community an opportunity to participate in the volunteer fire department but are unable, for any number of reasons, to serve as firefighters. It is also a way for the Uintah City Fire Department to utilize those individuals within the community that possess special non-emergency skills that may be of benefit to the department. As a department, we have become more flexible to parallel the many talents of individuals in our community. The Support Volunteer assists and supports fire department volunteers in non-firefighting duties. Examples of such duties could include, but are not limited to: Grant Writing Fundraising Campaigns Logistic Support Fire Station Maintenance Clerical Support Apparatus and Equipment Maintenance Photography Plumbing, Electrical, HVAC, Welding, Concrete Community Outreach Copy Writer / Social Media Marketing These examples are not limited to the above – the key is that the position should be beneficial to the specific needs of the Uintah Fire Department, and are within the experience and skills of the individual. APPLICATION PROCESS Submit the following items to Uintah City Hall located at 2191 East 6550 South, Uintah UT 84405 (note: All Items must be submitted in order to be considered for membership) 1.

Once accepted, the Support Volunteer will be assigned a mentor to become acclimated in the Support Functions of the Department and how they can best support the department. This may require volunteering time during regular training meetings, or at other times that the full department is not meeting. Being a support volunteer can be rewarding, as well as a time consuming responsibility. It is something that each applicant should give a lot of thought to, before making the decision to become a support volunteer. We suggest that you discuss the possibility thoroughly with the significant people in your life and weigh all of your other personal and professional obligations before making a decision to become a member. If, after careful consideration, you are still committed to becoming a support volunteer, we welcome and encourage you in this endeavor. The information here is for SUPPORT VOLUNTEER APPLICANTS ONLY.
