Welcome all VITA Volunteers!

Thank you once again for your interest in serving our communities through CSET's Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program. We appreciate your decision to dedicate some of your time and give back to the local communities, where we all live.

Due to the pandemic, we will move forward in our second year doing our training primarily through social media. The health and safety of everyone is going to be our primary concern now and when services become available.

We will always try to have staff available to help you with any questions or concerns you may have. Once again, please be patient with us as we continue to transition through this year's training via Zoom.
