Suggested Clothing while Serving at a PLN Outreach.
We are always thinking about the safety of our volunteers, even down to what is best to wear and what's not best to wear while serving. We recommend wearing closed-toed shoes, long pants or longer shorts & a loose fitting t-shirt or tank top.
Unfortunately, in our experience, we find especially for girls, they have to be aware of what they are wearing. For instance, form fitting clothing like biker shorts, a crop top, or shorts that are shorter than your t-shirt can become more distracting than the work we came to do.
If you have questions about this, please feel free to email info@peoplelovingnashville.com.

Homefullness Outreach Volunteers
During our Tuesday & Thursday Homefullness Outreaches we serve micro-income apartment complexes where many friends from the streets find their first stable home in a while.
Tuesdays: 5pm -7pm
Thursdays: 4:30pm-7:00pm
We limit the amount & are more selective about the volunteers for these outreaches based on the sensitivity to us visiting our friends homes, as well as availability to build lasting relationships with the residents.
We are looking for 5-10 volunteers to join us. If you are interested in volunteering with us at one of these outreaches, please email us at haley@peoplelovingnashville.com

We will want to notify everyone who has participated in that particular gathering anonymously and we will ask that group of people to also seek testing and suggest CDC recommendations on quarantine. If there is a known case of positive Covid-19, that entire group of volunteers will be asked to not return for 14 days.
3. We have drastically cut down on volunteers allowed at our outreaches. This is to limit the possibilities of transmitting the virus while also promoting capabilities of continued social distancing. We have also created sign up links to be able to communicate and keep track of our volunteers!
4. Masks, gloves and often sanitizing of hands is required. Please do your best to keep 6ft between you and anyone we are serving as well as serving next to. We also require that volunteers not carpool to and from our outreaches unless they are part of the same house-hold. When working with any surface please participate with staff as we sanitize every surface we work on often.
5. If you have/had Covid-19 we ask that you seek rest and full recovery. Please let us know how we ask a community may serve you in this time. We ask that you not return in person as a volunteer until 14 days after your positive test.
We pray that the heart of the precautions is clear. We come to serve and love some of the most vulnerable of our city. We want to do that to the best of our ability. We have sought wisdom from professionals in this field and will continue to sharpen our processes as best as possible. Please allow us grace as we do so, we realize that there are many sacrifices our volunteers make for those we serve, and we honor them. We could not be more grateful for this community.
