UCSF Volunteer HIV Test Counselor/Event Help

We are searching for community minded people who are interested in helping in the on-going and ever changing HIV/STI Prevention arena. We provide training and opportunity for certification through the San Francisco Dept. of Public Health to do HIV Prevention Test Counseling.

We are looking for people who can volunteer for various shifts, espcially late nights and weekends. We also do mobile testing on our van for special events, as well as street fairs (i.e., Dore, Folsom), as well as working with some of our local universities to educate and test their student population.

Our audience focus for our service, are populations who are most impacted, but also most underserved, which are currently the API (Asian Pacific Islander) MSM, Trans, and the African American communities. However, anyone can do an HIV test. You must be interested in working with a diverse group of people, both internally and externally to the agency.

We also offer non HIV Counselor Volunteer Opportunities! You can come and help us set up and break down our mobile testing operations at our outreach events, or you could come in and spend a couple of hours putting together some harm reduction kits. We do have daily tasks that wouldn't require a weekly commitment from you, and you would be doing a great service for not only us, but also our community.

What do you need to bring? An open mind, willingness to help, and a commitment to volunteer!!
