We Need People Like You!
Volunteering at A Hope Center is simple and has fewer requirements than you might think! The most important thing is to have a love for mothers, fathers, and unborn children, as well as a desire to help others.
One of our most popular volunteer opportunities includes our in-office positions, which allow you to engage in a variety of tasks while helping our mission.
In-Office Opportunities
Here are just a few of the in-office volunteer opportunities:
Baby Boutique Volunteer – This person will care for and coordinate the Baby Boutique at A Hope Center, including organizing items, washing clothes, etc.
Receptionist – The receptionist position is ideal for someone with a welcoming, empathetic disposition. This is a key person on the team, as they usually are the first contact with the client. They will need to complete the training, just like the other volunteer positions. Greeting clients at the window, scheduling appointments, answering phones, and doing light clerical work are all responsibilities of this role.
Earn While You Learn Facilitator – EWYL Facilitators act solely as mentors/teachers to clients who have chosen to carry their pregnancy to term. They use a pre-established curriculum and other resources to help clients improve their lives and their families’ lives.
Advocate – Female advocates have opportunities to provide peer counseling to women seeking pregnancy and STD testing, and other services. Male advocates provide peer counseling to the male partners of women seeking our services. Both are privileged to act as mentors and teachers to long-term clients who wish to grow in knowledge, maturity, and wisdom. Advocates receive extensive training to fulfill this role.
Nurse – A Hope Center is a limited medical facility. It is important to have nurses available on all shifts to provide nurse-administered pregnancy and STD testing. Nurses may also train as advocates to conduct all aspects of the pregnancy test visit with a client.
