Volunteer with JCFC

JCFC’s uniquely successful method of systemic organizing enables anyone who cares and is willing to work to join in building an organization to end policies that deny us access to safe and affordable heat and energy, and contribute to the crisis of climate change.

JCFC volunteers learn from experienced grassroots organizers how to:

Utility Advocacy

Lead utility advocacy sessions to stop shutoffs by utility companies.

JCFC trains volunteer advocates to work together with JCFC members to negotiate with utility companies threatening shutoffs and with agencies responsible for providing assistance to prevent shutoffs, secure reconnections and ensure access to affordable, clean energy as a human right.

Woodcuts

Coordinate woodcuts and firewood deliveries providing alternative fuel sources to hundreds of low-income families.

JCFC volunteers cut and deliver firewood, the only affordable source of heat for many, and also a clean and renewable source when taken from sustainably managed forests and efficiently burned, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations.
