The Department of Community Services (DCS) promotes, supports and celebrates volunteer engagement in Cecil County through:

• Volunteer Cecil - a web-based system connecting individuals with volunteer opportunities.  Organizations utilizing volunteers have access to the web-based system to post needs and events. In addition, Volunteer Cecil provides volunteer management resources to organizations within Cecil County.

• The Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) - a grant-funded initiative through the Corporation for National and Community Service, which strives to place adults 55+ in meaningful service activities. Older volunteers receive assistance in finding just the right volunteer spot where they can use their experience and passion for the greater good.  Residents ages 55 and older may call 410-996-8439 for more information on RSVP.
