Volunteer
Founded by a group of volunteers, they are an essential part of the work that we do at ACT. Dynamic, community-rooted positions available.
At ACT we could not do what we do without the strength, commitment, and diversity of our valued volunteers. Every volunteer role presents an exciting new opportunity to learn, engage and support people living and impacted by HIV and AIDS.
Being part of the ACT team; you enhance the programs and services we offer and assist staff in providing the best support for our service users.
There are three steps to becoming a volunteer at ACT:
Step One: Attend a Volunteer Information Session. Learn more about ACT’s programs, services, and fundraising events, to hear about volunteer opportunities and to find out what is involved in becoming a volunteer. Please view ACT's Calendar of Events at https://www.actoronto.org/events-news/calendar-of-events to find out when the next session. Upcoming dates: (September 27 - In Person)
Step Two: For volunteers who are interested in working in the area of programs or service delivery, the Volunteer Coordinator will meet with you individually. This interview ensures a good match between what you are looking for in a volunteer opportunity and what ACT has to offer.
Step Three: Following the interview, you will be registered for Core Skills Training. Volunteers must complete 24 hours of Core Skills Training and receive a Certificate of Completion. Additional training will be required in various program-specific areas. The next Core Skills Training is in January/February 2024.
