Volunteer

HIV Alliance is successful only because of community members, like you, who are willing to donate as little as 2 hours out of their month or as much as 20 hours a week volunteering for HIV Alliance. Our services could not be delivered without the efforts of these volunteers.  We have volunteer opportunities at a variety of commitment levels so you can make a difference even if you don't have a lot of free time on your hands.

Our volunteers work in all aspects of the organization from Development and Administration to Client Services and Prevention.

We are thankful for the dedicated volunteers who work each day to help us support individuals living with HIV/AIDS and prevent new HIV infections.

Volunteers Make a Difference

Our volunteers are often our client's first contact with the agency. They are the first ones to greet clients as they walk in the door or call on the phone. They make the first initial impression of our agency. They are the ones directly providing services to our clients like distributing syringes for our Needle Exchange or handing out safer sex kits in our Outreach program. They create the supplies for our prevention department to ensure we have the kits and safer injection materials available to distribute to high risk indivdiauls. They ensure that our clients that don't have a home, at least have a home cooked meal once a week at our support group. They do risk assessments with our clients and work with them to find a way to reduce their risk and fit inside their own individual lifestyle and financial realities. They give clients the tests and results of HIV and Hep C tests and are the first people our clients talk to after they have been told that they have a reactive test result.

From behind the scenes work to providing our services directly to clients, our volunteers make the difference in our client's lives!
