Volunteer Opportunities

Interested in lending a hand?  Learn how you can get started volunteering by joining our team of ELVes!

{ELV = Entry Level Volunteer}

Everything starts somewhere, and at the Council ‘lending a hand’ starts with ELVes – our Entry Level Volunteers.  No one can do everything, but everyone can do something, so ELVes first complete a questionnaire about their interests and experience, followed by a brief interview with Council staff.  Qualified ELVes may be asked to assist Program staff in preparing for community outreach activities and education events, by performing such basic tasks such as folding, sorting, counting, wrapping, and packing of printed information and materials.  The Council schedules volunteer time based on anticipated program needs, and all initial activities for  ELVes takes place at our Las Vegas office location (5552 S. Fort Apache Rd., Suite 100).

To learn more about joining the ELVes just give us a call at 702-369-9740.  Or email us at: programs@nevadacouncil.org


Host a Lunch & Learn Staff Briefing or Community Awareness Session

The Nevada Council on Problem Gambling welcomes opportunities to bring problem gambling information to members of our community.  If your organization, agency or place of business would like to educate your employees about this important community health issue, consider hosting a Lunch & Learn event in partnership with us.  You provide the lunch and the audience, and we’ll provide the expert speaker and resource information!
