There are many ways to lend a hand. In addition to tax preparers, we need client greeters, bilingual screeners, computer technicians, and financial counselors. Volunteers will work in teams to prepare the returns, so you don't necessarily need a tax background to help. Tax experts will be on site to answer any questions you have along the way. Volunteers must attend one training session. Each training session lasts two hours and you can earn CPE credits. Already registered for this year?
