PSA is an organization of dedicated volunteers who create, implement, and manage all PSA programs, services, and activities. Therefore, it takes many people to keep all the aspects of the Society going. Those who have some time or a special expertise that they would be willing to contribute to the PSA mission, programs, services, activities, and projects should contact those active in a program or activity of interest to the volunteer. Some opportunities are short, one-time projects, others are ongoing.
Additionally, there is a volunteer area on this website where those desiring to contribute their time to the society can be connected to the appropriate person; or a discussion of the individual's skills, talents, interests, and available time can take place. VOLUNTEER LINK
