    Description

    Help gather information from clients coming in, assess their condition, and provide immediate emotional support.

    Training: 4 hours orientation, plus working with an experienced interviewer

    Time Commitment: Variable. We do 2-3 interviews a week, but can split these among multiple people. Intake requires 1 hour to 90 minutes. They are mostly on European time.

    Requirements: Common sense, not easily scammed, ability to read people even when they're in desperate circumstances. Ability to maintain boundaries. Training in a social work, psychology, or related field is useful. Familiarity with Arab culture is useful but not necessary. Ability to take organized notes.

    Fun: You'll be the first person a desperate trans person seeking help talks to. You get to meet lots of amazing trans people from all over the world. If you are interested in psychology, you get to work with people in circumstances most people will never be in. You get to say "we will help you" to trans people who believe they are going to die.
