Volunteer
There’s something about getting involved in your community, isn’t there? Whether you are looking for something for just you or the entire family, Scott has many ways you can lend a hand. In fact, the Scott County Volunteer Program is a county resource that can help you connect to opportunities that make our home an even better place to live. Heck, they will even help you find the right people for an event you want to host, too. Learn about this resource and more below.
Get Involved
From painting fences to fostering pets, Scott’s got opportunities for you to amp up your impact. A great place to start is the Scott County Volunteer Program. They provide opportunities for community members to share their skills and through this program, they have developed a system for recruiting volunteers as well as training volunteers, and you should visit their website to start your journey.

Community Action Partnership
CAP stands for Community Action Partnership, and they are one of Scott’s incredible friends. We’re lucky to have them as a part of the community, and they offer opportunities for people to share their time and talents with others. With a food shelf, thrift store, and senior nutrition programs, there are many ways to contribute. Click the link below to sign up on the CAP website.
Southern Valley Alliance
Southern Valley Alliance is a non-profit dedicated to providing survivors of domestic violence with support, resources, referrals, and advocacy. They serve both Dakota and Scott County and are located in Belle Plaine. Volunteers go through a comprehensive training program, and they are always looking for new recruits to help them meet their mission.
Let's Go Fishing
The local chapter of Let’s Go Fishing is all about enriching the lives of individuals through fishing and boating excursions, and Scott’s sure glad we have them all hands on deck as a part of our community. Participants can sit back and relax with some vitamin D, or swing a pole into the water and see what they catch.
