    Description

    Volunteer Opportunity (Queens)

    Join the Boundless Freedom Project team and support participants at Rikers Island! We are looking for passionate volunteers to help facilitate mindfulness programs aimed at empowering inside community members.

    Volunteers will assist with facilitating groups, leading mindful conversations, movement practices, and community-building resources inside in carceral institutions. This is an opportunity to create meaningful connections and contribute to the transformative work being done for the community inside these tense institutions.

    Commitment:

    Positions range from a three-month to one-year commitment depending on your availability. We are also offering virtual opportunities for those who wish to support remotely.

    Prior experience inside institutions is welcome but not required!
