Volunteer Opportunities

  • HIV/AIDS Awareness and Advocacy in NYC

    During this weekend long alternative break, participants will be staying at a church in the Lower East Side of Manhattan and will be working with agencies that focus on supporting people affected by HIV/AIDS. In the past we have assisted with reducing harm for risky behaviors that can lead to HIV, and created safe sex kits for outreach workers. The group will meet for four times prior to the trip weekend and will meet once or twice after.

    Trip Dates: Nov. 2-4

    Application deadline: Wednesday, September 26th.
