Absolutely! Our Volunteers come from not only Prince Georges County but from all over the United States. Keep in mind that each station will require a minimum number of volunteer hours each month to maintain an active status. Check with your station of interest for specific details.

Typically the process can take as little as 2 months or as long as 6 months but overall it depends on the applicant and how diligent they are to complete each step.

Each volunteer station operates as an individual business so their minimum hour requirements vary from station to station. This is one reason why it is important to find the right station to suit your availability, needs and overall career goals. Volunteering is a serious commitment as training can take 12-18 months. On average, new operational members without previous training or experience can expect to spend 200-400 hours in their first year going through initial training, attending company meetings etc. We do our best to ensure that offsite training and duty shifts are as flexible as possible with evening/weekend hours to fit around work schedules and life.
