COVID-19 Update

COVID-19 Update: Due to COVID-19, we are not currently accepting new on-site volunteers. We are still in the process of exploring remote volunteering at the Clinic and hope to offer these types of opportunities in the near future. For this reason, we invite you to submit your volunteer application so that we can reach out to you when we are ready to accept remote or on-site volunteers again.

The commitment and energy of our volunteers reflect their determination to help women and gender diverse people build lives free of violence. Volunteers are valued members of the Schlifer Clinic.  We know that many volunteers make personal sacrifices to be available at the Clinic, and we are grateful to every one of them.

 

As a volunteer you will:

  • Meet women* and gender diverse people from all walks of life
  • Help people rebuild their lives
  • Have the opportunity to learn new skills

Volunteer Process:

Volunteers go through a general interview, screening, and training process. To volunteer, please fill out and submit our Volunteer Application and submit it with your resume.

We will review your application and resume once it’s been submitted and we will contact you if your qualifications match any current volunteer openings. If no suitable position is available at this time and you still want to submit an application and resume we welcome you to do so. Your application will be kept on file for a period of six months and will be considered for future volunteer openings.

Application and Training Process:

  • Complete a Volunteer Application (Volunteer process currently on hold, will be accepting volunteers in the near future)
  • Attend an interview
  • Attend an orientation session
  • A four to six-week training process

* The umbrella term “woman” recognizes that gender is self-identification that is not necessarily correspondent with assigned sex at birth. We recognize the complexity and diversity of gender and aim to be inclusive to people outside of and across the gender spectrum.
