VITA

Project Description

Senior Corps-RSVP volunteers provide free income tax preparation for federal, state, and local tax returns. Property Tax and Rent Rebate preparation are available as well. All VITA volunteers receive local training and then are certified through the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). This service is available to Clarion and Jefferson County residents with income less than $56,000 annually.

VITA is always recruiting for additional volunteers to assist as greeters, preparers, and quality reviewers.

For additional Information about VITA or if you are interested in volunteering, please contact Samantha Schrecengost, Senior Corps-RSVP Director (see 'Contact Information' below).
