Benefit Screener Volunteers assist in the screening process to identify eligibility for public benefits (such as food stamps, subsidized child care, Peach Care, etc). Benefit screenings take place at various locations throughout the Metro Atlanta area at partnering agency sites. Many of the partnering agencies have limited resources and need volunteers to help to screen clients for these benefits.

Benefit Screener Volunteer Requirements: Volunteers must be 18 yrs and older. Basic computer/internet skills required. Training on the software used in screening provided. Dates, times and locations for this volunteer opportunity varies.
