Thank you for your interest in volunteering; this year we have sufficient volunteers and our upcoming training is full. Please check in again next year.<\/strong><\/h5>\n
We love our volunteers!\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Volunteers are at the heart of what we do.\u00a0 Our volunteers give generously of their time and are an essential part of our team.\u00a0 They bring their compassion, diversity, skills and enthusiasm to a wide variety of role at Hospice Yukon.<\/p>\n

Throughout the year we have opportunities for volunteers to connect with each other over dinners, education opportunities, and other activities.\u00a0 Our annual Volunteer Appreciation Dinner and AGM takes place in May every year.<\/p>\n

Volunteer with clients<\/h5>\n

We take care to find a good fit between the interests and skills of each volunteer with an appropriate role at Hospice Yukon.<\/p>\n

Client-focused volunteer roles include:<\/p>\n

-Healing Touch Volunteer<\/p>\n

-Vigil Volunteer<\/p>\n

-Volunteer at Community Events (information table or in-service presentations)<\/p>\n

-Grief Group Facilitator<\/p>\n

If you are interested in volunteering with clients directly please email carlie@hospiceyukon.net<\/a> to have a further conversation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Volunteers are screened to ensure a good fit, including a written application form (or conversation if you prefer), Criminal Record Check, references, and informal interview.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Client-Focused Volunteer Training takes place when we have an organizational need.\u00a0 We currently do not have a training scheduled.<\/p>\n

Volunteer behind the scenes<\/h5>\n

These roles include (but are not limited to) helping with the library, preparing for community workshops, preparing information packages, helping with mailouts, research projects and newsletter articles, yard maintenance, house repairs, poster distribution, making feelie hearts, and more.<\/p>\n
