Advocacy Group Is Seeking Volunteers
The Oxnard-based Latino advocacy group El Concilio is looking for volunteers to help local residents fill out citizenship application forms on Saturday mornings.
No knowledge of Spanish is necessary, said Anita Rodriguez of the citizenship workshop, “just some clerical ability to help people fill out applications.”
El Concilio runs free weekend citizenship workshops at locations in Ventura County throughout the year. Workshops in Thousand Oaks, Fillmore and Oxnard are scheduled in the next several weeks. A typical Saturday morning session requires four or fewer hours.
El Concilio also needs volunteers to help with its after-school homework assistance program.
For information on volunteering or on workshop hours and location, call Rodriguez at 486-9777.
