In return, volunteers shall agree to actively perform their duties to the best of their abilities and to remain loyal to the goals and procedures of the agency.

Volunteers may be utilized in various programs and activities of the agency, and serve at various levels of skill. Volunteers can not, however, be utilized to displace any paid employees from their positions.
