Then click this sign up link again, but this time, log-in on the left hand side with your email\/password and that should start the application.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fvolunteerconnection.redcross.org%2F%3Fnd%3Dintake%26entry_point_id%3D18%26entry_point_type%3Dglobal_entry_point&amp;data=02%7C01%7CRkane%40eugene-or.gov%7C3bdf9c3763a5411bd47508d85f29cea7%7C0c0d3453aa1d41bc8aa35c843d4ca0e8%7C0%7C0%7C637363980464229763&amp;sdata=%2FVonM2P808qtYl5CRJF6rQhX9CyYFimlLxvZcpkF9JA%3D&amp;reserved=0\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Click Here to Sign Up!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once your application is created, you\u2019ll be guided to take a few online trainings and have access to our volunteer shift listings in your area.&nbsp; The volunteer needs during a disaster are ever changing, so if you don\u2019t see something available in your area now, that could change very quickly.&nbsp; Please keep an eye out for email communication from the Red Cross to stay up to date with our volunteer needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please let me know if you have any questions about the application process.&nbsp; Thank you again for your support.&nbsp; Take care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sam Haffey<\/strong><br><strong>Senior Recruitment Specialist<\/strong><br><strong>American Red Cross<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cascades Region<br>3131 N Vancouver Ave.<br>Portland, OR 97227<br>(541) 414-7576<br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:sam.haffey@redcross.org\" target=\"_blank\">sam.haffey@redcross.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the Red Cross Greetings, I am reaching out to see if you can share an appeal with the Lane COAD community for volunteers in the area to support Red Cross disaster response needs.&nbsp; Currently the Red Cross is seeking &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/request-for-red-cross-volunteers\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4554","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general-interest"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4554","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4554"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4554\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4555,"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4554\/revisions\/4555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/santaclaracommunity.org\/scco\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
