Metro volunteer engagement activities

Metro is the regional government for the Portland Metro region - that includes Forest Grove. Among the many services they undertake is a volunteer engagement program for the area - including parts of Forest Grove.

Opportunities range from one-time volunteer events to seasonal and ongoing programs.

There are many ways to volunteer with Metro.

If you’re looking for a one-time opportunity, see upcoming events listed at the bottom of the web page or sign up to be notified when one-time opportunities open up.

If you’re looking for a seasonal or ongoing opportunity, consider volunteering as an amphibian monitor, advisory committee member, at the Native Plant Center, trail counts volunteer or volunteer naturalist. Seasonal opportunities usually ask for a commitment of at least three months. Please note that all ongoing and seasonal volunteer opportunities require a background check.

Not sure where to start? Attend a Volunteering 101 session to learn about Metro, its programs and resources, and the many fun and helpful ways you can get involved. Sessions take place periodically. Register online by choosing a date at the web site.
