Volunteer Opportunities

Each year in June the Harvard Select Board make various appointments to our many town boards/committees/commissions. 
Volunteering is a great way to connect to your community and make it a better place to live. Through volunteering, Harvard residents build stronger
relationships, learn from each other, and feel more connected to the special community Harvard is!

Please consider reviewing the list of boards/committees/commissions below. If there is an area you have expertise in or are interested in becoming 
involved with please let us know! We would love to hear from you!

Please contact Executive Assistant Julie Doucet via email at jdoucet@harvard-ma.gov with questions, to attain board/committee/commission contact
information or simply complete a volunteer form to get started!

Volunteer applications are due by May 1st to accommodate the annual appointment process in June.
