Family Selection and Support Committee
Contact:
Lynn Morgan, Chairperson
The Family Selection and Support Committee recruits and carefully screens families for home ownership. They work with families to obtain all required information, select partner families, and make notifications. The committee also builds lasting relationships by working with families in two ways:

1) Create a one-to-one partnership between a committee member and a Habitat family.
2) Guide the family to becoming competent and successful homeowners, through educational sessions such as budgeting, home maintenance, decorating, gardening, and landscaping, etc.

Building Committee
Contact:
Brian Drappo, Chairperson: (315) 783-4799
Once a family is chosen and a site is picked by the Board of Directors, the project is handed off to the Building Committee to develop and construct a house that is simple and fits the guidelines for the family. The members of the Building Committee are men and women who oversee the volunteer work groups that come each weekend. Their level of construction knowledge and experience vary. Anyone that is interested in being a member of the Building Committee can contact the chairperson for more information.

Volunteer Development Committee
Contact:
Pam Rajner, Volunteer Coordinator: (315) 486-7321
The Volunteer Development Committee is responsible for recruiting, placement, and coordination of volunteers. The Volunteer Committee works with the Building Committee to coordinate "work day" schedules. The committee recruits local restaurants and food establishments to donate lunches at work sites. The committee is also responsible for maintaining the "volunteer recognition" program.
