Volunteer Application

The Community Assistance Program is a group of dedicated, professionally trained adults who provide 24-hour on-scene crisis intervention and/or victims assistance services to the citizens of the Greater Phoenix area. The CAP units respond from fire stations throughout the greater Phoenix area, and work in partnership with the Phoenix Fire and Police Departments and social service agencies.

Why Our Volunteers Are So Important!

The volunteers and interns respond to the needs of the community by providing emotional support in times of crisis. They are dispatched by the alarm room to assist individuals and families on a wide range of calls.

Your school or university may allow credits for you to work with the CAP toward an internship or practicum. The Program will provide supervision to those seeking their professional certification.

The CAP continually recruits volunteers and interns who possess a valid Arizona driver's license and are at least 18 years of age for EMT and 21 years of age for BHS.

If you want to become a member of the Phoenix Fire Department family and are able to volunteer at least 48 hours per quarter, please call us or e-mail us for more information.
