Volunteer Application

Internships are offered for higher education students seeking course credit or professional experience as part of their academic coursework. Our internships do not include clinical experience and typically do not exceed 50 hours per semester. If you are seeking more than 50 hours, please note we may not be your singular source for this experience.

Volunteer positions are offered to adults seeking opportunities to improve the lives of those impacted by mental illness through outreach and support opportunities.
