House Captain Responsibilities |

You will receive your house assignment! The House Selection Committee has
already visited the house and talked to the homeowner. A scope
of work has been prepared by a Work Evaluator which is a list of repairs
that may be completed at the home. It is the responsibility of the House Captain
to work with the Homeowner to determine the top three priority repairs for
Rebuilding Day.

Immediately
|
Preview the scope of work created by the Work Evaluator. Review the list of tasks,
materials and the budget for the project. Make any changes you think might
be necessary to the electronic scope of work provided in the House Captain
manual. Plan the work for volunteers, both skilled and unskilled that you will
need to complete the work on Rebuilding Day.
