We appreciate your interest in volunteering with Guide Dog of America | Tender Loving Canines. Please complete this application and attend an orientation for placement. You will receive an email with further instructions and orientation details.

Please note: Volunteer Application and orientation is for those seeking a long-term commitment to our organization, minimum of 6 months (especially those positions related to working with our dogs). For short-term volunteering to satisfy academic or community service requirements, please email volunteercoordinator@guidedogsofamerica.org. The number of volunteer positions vary, depending on the needs of GDA | TLC. Attending orientation is required to participate in our volunteer program, but placement is not guaranteed in the desired department. We welcome adults, 18 years of age or older, to participate. Minors, that are 16 and 17 years old, can participate with a supervising adult or legal guardian; both are expected to submit application and attend orientation.

Questions? Please contact our Volunteer Coordinator at (818) 833-6434 or VolunteerCoordinator@guidedogsofamerica.org.
