ELKHART COUNTY, Ind. – The Elkhart County Health Department needs volunteers to handle incoming phone calls for the COVID-19 Information Line.

The posted volunteer hours are 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturdays.

Officials ask that you indicate any past medical training when you register to volunteer.

To register, visit the website for the Indiana Emergency Registry of Volunteers for Indiana.

After registering, your identity will be verified and a background check well then be performed.

Officials from the Elkhart County Health Department will then contact you once everything has been processed.

Officials also want to emphasize that paperwork for testing cannot be provided through the Information Line. Instead, call 574-523-2106.
