Megan,
Congrats on your new position! Not sure if you've checked our forum resource library yet but there may be some helpful documents shared by others in these folders:
We also have separate folders in the library for foster manuals if you're creating those too:
Hopefully others will share their SOPs as well. Best of luck in launching these new programs at your shelter!

Subject: SOP's for Volunteer/Outreach and Foster/Rescue Coordinator
I recently started as the Adoptions Manager in a small county shelter. About 6 months before I started the county made a Volunteer/Outreach position and a Foster/Rescue position. However there are no SOP's for either position yet, I would like to create said SOP for each. I do have the job descriptions and the expectations for both positions. My question is would anyone be willing to share their SOP's for these positions (or similar positions) with me as a guideline to start with? Being in the shelter field for many years (10+) I have an idea of what I want in the SOP's, however most of the wording seems off. Therefore having a guide or samples of other SOP's would be greatly appreciated! Thank you all in advance! My email is mstalb@qac.org
