Become a Volunteer

 

Transformation Training Institute, Inc. will host its 6th Annual Black History Month Conference 2025 on February 21-22, 2025, and our 3rd Annual Fundraiser Gala. This event will be in person at venue TBA in Augusta, Georgia! Thank you so much for supporting our conferences and other trainings. We need volunteers. Starting early gives us all the opportunity to plan and manage our volunteer service time. Most of us are employed, therefore starting early will assist with not having a time conflict or to become overwhelmed. We thank you advance for assisting us in having the best conference yet in 2025!😄 We plan to have day-of-event volunteers to ensure all clinicians are participating in all instructional times of the conference. We received lots of requests for a hybrid conference option. If you are an IT person, please assist in making this happen. Below are a few areas to volunteer, but if you can assist in an area not mentioned, please feel free to let me know. There is a place for all who want to assist. Please complete the form below if you are interested in being a conference volunteer. If you have any questions, please email sandra@transformationtraininginc.com. The first meeting will be on April 25, 2024, @ 6:30 pm EST via Zoom. I can't wait to see some of you all again. Let’s work together to make the 2025 Conference the best one yet!
