Volunteers Handbook

The Volunteers Handbook is a reference manual for inspectors and other volunteers. It does not, nor could it, cover every possible situation which you might encounter. For anything not covered in the handbook, please ask your Area Officer.

Warning: The Volunteers Handbook is in the process of being updated and some of its contents are out of date - particularly Section 6 and the Appendices.

The downloads on this page are in PDF format. Most modern computers can open PDF files. Older computers might need additional software. The most popular software is Adobe Reader, which you can download from Adobe's web site.
