Habitat for Humanity of Monroe Countyis settling into the 2012 build schedule and is in need of committed individuals to aid in its mission to provide simple decent housing for families living in substandard conditions.

Crew leading is one of our biggest needs right now and we are always looking to recruit new trainees who want to learn construction skills and work with volunteers on the job site.
