Participants in the Program can work a variable schedule to accommodate their needs as well as the needs of Caltrans. A maximum or minimum number of hours is not a requirement of this program. Some volunteers choose to work in fields they are interested in, have current or prior schooling in, or work in areas they know little about and gaining exposure to a different career environment.
