Volunteers are needed for a one-day, one-stop shop that provides hundreds of people with services to help end their homelessness. Project Homeless Connect 8, to be held June 14 in Concord, will connect people experiencing homelessness with food, medical and dental care, substance abuse programs, shelters and job assistance, among other things. The success of the annual event largely depends on volunteers, who are needed to help set up, greet and direct people, distribute goods and foods, assist service providers and provide general assistance at the event. Project Homeless Connect 8 will be held at the Willow Pass Center, 2748 East Olivera Road, Concord, CA 94519.
